  • Review how acids and bases react with water, and how a Ka or Kb expression relates to that reaction;
  • Review buffers, what they are, how they act when they are attacked by a strong acid or strong base, and talk about how to make one;
  • Review how acids and bases react with each other;
  • Talk about titrations and work titration problems.

To prepare for class, please read the 7 pages below on buffers, and watch the videos  22 min, 22 min)  below on titrations. The notes that go with the videos are in your note packet on titrations.
