The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation relates the pH of a buffer solution to the ratio of concentrations of the conjugate base and acid. Examples are provided to show how to calculate the pH of buffer solutions and how buffers counteract additions of strong acids or bases.

The document defines key concepts related to reaction rates in chemistry:
1) Reaction rate is defined as the change in concentration of a reactant or product with time.
2) The rate formula relates the rate of a reaction to the change in concentration of a reactant or product over time.
3) The concentration of reactants is directly proportional to the rate of reaction according to the rate formula.
4) A catalyst increases the reaction rate by participating in the reaction without being consumed and allowing collisions between molecules to result in reaction at lower energies.
The document discusses reaction rates and kinetics. It defines reaction rate and states that the concentration of reactants is proportional to the rate of reaction. It also defines the rate constant and rate law formula. A catalyst affects the reaction rate by lowering the activation energy, increasing the frequency of collisions, and increasing the probability of successful collisions. Enzymes are biological catalysts and the collision theory states that for a reaction to occur, reactant particles must collide with adequate energy.
