bufferingjärjestelmä
A buffering system, or "bufferingjärjestelmä" in Finnish, is a chemical solution designed to resist changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base are added. This stability is crucial in many biological and chemical processes where a narrow pH range is essential for optimal function.
Buffering systems typically consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and
The effectiveness of a buffer is determined by its buffer capacity, which refers to the amount of
In biological systems, buffering systems play a vital role in maintaining the stable pH of bodily fluids,
