A buffer is a mixed solution of a weak acid or base, combined
with its conjugate. Note that this can be understood essentially as
a common-ion problem: The conjugate is a common ion added to an
equilibrium system of a weak acid or base. The addition of the
conjugate shifts the equilibrium of the system to relieve the
stress of the added concentration of the common ion. In a solution
consisting of a weak acid or base, the equilibrium shift...
