What is the relationship between pKa value of an acid, target pH, and [base]/[acid] ratio, and how does that r?

What is the relationship between pKa value of an acid, target pH, and [base]/[acid] ratio, and how does that relationship help you decide which conjugate acid-base pair to choose when designing a buffer?





THANKS!|||pH = pKa + log( [A-]/[HA])





pick pair where acid pKa is close to desired pH
