Henderson-Hasselbalch Base Calculator
The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is used to determine the pOH of a base solution when given the concentration of the base, its conjugate acid, and the dissociation constant. The equation is written as:
pOH = pKb + log ([BH+][B]
)
...where pKb is the dissociation constant, [B] is the concentration of the base, and [BH+] is the concentration of the conjugate acid. This calculator will determine a fourth unknown value in the equation when provided with any three other values.
