What are some examples of a buffer?

Examples of buffers include antacids that help neutralize stomach acid, blood buffers that maintain a stable pH in the blood, and phosphate buffers used in biological experiments to maintain a constant pH.


What are some examples of inorganic buffers?

The simplest is probably ammonia-and-ammonium solution, a very common buffer. Since ammonia is a weak base and ammonium is a weak acid, the two being conjugates and both inorganic, it can be used to form an inorganic buffer. Other examples are harder to find, as almost all inorganic acids are strong like hydrochloric or hydrofluoric acids. Because of some basic chemistry (which takes a textbook to explain) these cannot form buffers.

What is the chemistry of common buffers used in microbiological media?

Common buffers used in microbiological media include phosphate buffers (such as phosphate buffered saline), carbonate-bicarbonate buffers, and tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) buffer. These buffers help maintain a stable pH by resisting changes in acidity or alkalinity. Phosphate buffers are versatile and can be used in a wide pH range, while carbonate-bicarbonate buffers are effective at pH near 9. Tris buffer is commonly used in the slightly alkaline pH range.


How are buffers formed?

Different buffers are formed in different ways. Heat buffers are formed by creating a physical substances in most cases for example.
