Buffer solutions are also known as pH buffers are resistant to any pH changes from a strong base or acid presence. Buffer solutions allow for the pH to stay at a constant level due an equilibrium balance. These are used in several applications, such as blood in the human body as a buffer solution.<h2>What are the types of Buffer Solutions?</h2>Acid Buffer Solution - this is used when the pH is less than seven and generally comprises a weak acid.Alkaline Buffer Solution - this is used when the pH is over seven and comprises a weak base (Alkaline).Buffer solutions offer a balanced pH but that doesn&rsquo;t mean the buffer solutions have a neutral pH. They can balance the solution from external influences that can change the pH levels.<h2>What are the applications for Buffer Solutions?</h2>Buffer solutions have several uses, with many chemical reactions needing a constant pH. Several applications include:Chemical AnalysisCalibrating EquipmentFermentationPersonal Hygiene products
