I need a buffer with a pH o 8.50. I will make it using the weak base ammonia (NH3) and form it's conjugate acid ammonium chloride (NH4CL). The concentration of ammonia is 0.050M. What concentration of the conjugate acid is needed to make this buffer? The base dissociation constant for ammonia is 1.8 x 10^-5.
