How exactly does a buffer made up of a weak acid and its conjugate base work upon addition of hydroxide ions? [duplicate]
Consider a buffer solution containing a weak acid and its conjugate base ($c_\mathrm{total} = \pu{0.1 mol L-1}$):
$$\ce{HA <=> H^+ + A^-}$$
When $\ce{H+}$ ions are added (from a strong acid), ...

How to calculate how much weak acid would dissociate in water?
So I know water has a pH of 7. If we add 0.1 mol of a strong acid inside 1 liter of water, it WILL fully dissociate into 0.1 mol of A- and 0.1 mol of H+ thus making the pH of the solution 1.
But what ...
