Question

Is there a difference between pH measurements using the pH meter and the pH paper?

Compare the initial pH and the final pH of each sample. What was the most effective buffer? What was the least effective?

**** Calculate the difference (subtract) the initial pH - final pH values ​​to identify the effectiveness of each solution as a buffer. Values ​​with little difference mean that a less drastic change occurred and are therefore more effective. On the contrary, values ​​by much difference reflect drastic changes in pH and are less effective.

What do buffers do and why are they important in biological systems?
