The dissociation of weak electrolyte (a weak base or weak acid) is expressed in terms of Ostwald's dilution law. An acid is substance which furnishes a proton or accepts an electron pair, where a base is proton acceptor or electron pair donor. Stronger is acid, weaker is its conjugate base. The dissociation constants of an acid (K_(a)) and its conjugate base (K_(b)) are related by K_(w)=K_(a)xxK_(b) , where K_(w) is ionic product of water equal to 10^(-14) at 25^(@)C . The numerical value of K_(w) however increase with temperature. In a solution of an acid or base [H^(+)][OH^(-)]=10^(-14) . Thus the [H^(+)] in a solution is expressed as: [H^(+)]=10^(-pH) and pH+pOH=14 . Buffer solution are the solutions which do not show appreciable change in the pH on addition of small amount of acid or base. The removal of PO_(4)^(3-) in qualitative analysis of basic radicals after II gp. is made by using a buffer solution of:

The dissociation of weak electrolyte (a weak base or weak acid) id expressed in terms of Ostwald dilution law. An acid is a substance which furnishes a proton or accepts an electron pair whereas a base is proton acceptor or electron pair donor. Storonger is the acid weaker is its conjugate base. The dissociation constants of an acid (K_(a)) and its conjugate base are related by (K_(w)=K_(a)xxK_(b) , where K_(w) is ionic prodcut of water equal to 10-14 at 25^(@) C. The numerical value of K_(w) however increases with temperature.
