IDENTIFY ACID AND BASE USING BY
SYNTHETIC INDICATOR
A. PURPOSE
To observing the buffer solution and not buffer solution
B. BASIC THEORY
Buffer solution or buffer, or buffer solution is a solution that can
maintain a certain pH value. The most prominent characteristics of this buffer
solution such as buffer pH changed only slightly on the addition of a strong
acid.
In general, a buffer solution is described as a mixture consisting of:
Weak acid (HA) and conjugate base (ion A -), this mixture produces
acidic solution.
Weak base (B) and conjugate base (BH +), this mixture produces
alkaline solution.
Buffer solution components are divided into:
1. Solution of acidic buffer
The solution is to maintain the pH in the acidic (pH <7). To obtain this
solution can be made from a weak acid and its salts which is the conjugate
base of acid. The other way is to mix a weak acid with a strong base weak
acid which is mixed in the amount of excess. Will produce the salt mixture
containing the conjugate base of weak acids in question. In general, used a
strong base such as sodium, potassium, barium, calcium, and others.
2. Solution of the base buffer
The solution is to maintain the pH in the alkaline (pH> 7). To obtain
this solution can be made from a weak base and salt, the salts derived from
strong acids. The other way is by mixing a weak base with a strong acid
which is mixed with excess weak base.

ANALYZE
1 When water added by universal indicator its color is lichen green. When
added by 1 drop HCl solution, its color changes to red. Solution in tube 1
only needed little acid to change pH.
2
When water added by universal indicator its color is lichen green. When
added by 1 drop NaOH solution, its color changes to old purple. Solution
in tube 2 only needed little base to change pH.
When acetic acid added by universal indicator its color is blood red. When
added by more drops HCl solution, its color disposed no change.
Difficulty to change pH of acetic acid.
When natrium acetic added by universal indicator its color is green. When
added by 1 drop NaOH solution, its color changes to old purple. Solution
4 only needed little base to change pH.
