I'm preparing for an experiment to investigate some factor affecting buffer capacity. At the moment, I'm looking at using a $\ce{NH_3}$ ($2\,\mathrm{M}$) $+$ $\ce{NH_4Cl}$ buffer, but I'm not sure which factor to test. My research tells me that only the concentrations of each will affect buffer capacity, and that the ratio of their concentrations will affect the $\mathrm{pH}$ of the buffer (by the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation). Are there other factors which I can test, because I'm trying to make it a bit more interesting? As far as I can tell, something like temperature won't affect buffer capacity.
As far as the actually experiment goes, what would be the best way to measure buffer capacity? I could just do a titration and record the $\mathrm{pH}$ as I go, but I'm thinking of using an indicator and measuring absorbance. I'm open to any ideas here, because I'm struggling to think of anything "out of the box"?
