Dear All
Sorry for non crystallographic query.
Can any body mail me how to prepare Ammonium citrate
tribasic (citric acid triammonium salt) buffer pH 6.7
to 7.25 and also what is the pKa value.
Thanking you in advance

There are 3 pKa's for citric acid:
3.15, 4.77, and 5.19
so it is going to be a lousy buffer at pH 6.7 to 7.25. Also, you need
to know what concentration your buffer is, and whether that
concentration is with respect to the citrate ion or what. It won't be
tribasic with respect to
Just on a side note, can someone clarify why Hasselbach is not
Hasselbalch or vice versa ? Or is that the same guy just somewhere
sometime misspelled and for ever in the records ?

Since Wikipedia has now replaced the social consensus as the final
arbiter of truth ...
