Buffers 1. Mix weak acid Mix weak base + salt of conjugate base + salt of conjugate acid 2. Partial neutralization weak base there must be an excess of weak acid(weak base) assume that all of the strong base reacts forming stoichiometric amount of A - leaving unreacted HA of weak acidwith strong base with strong acid
