pH = -Log[H+]
pOH = -Log[OH-]
pKevinAhern = -Log[KevinAhern]
pH + pOH = 14
pH = pKa + Log([Salt]/[Acid])

Resist Changes in pH
Weak Acid Systems

Metabolic Melody
Henderson Hasselbalch
You put my brain in shock
Oh woe is me
The pKas can make
Me lie in bed awake
They give me really bad headaches
Oh hear my plea
Salt - acid RA-ti-os
Help keep the pH froze
By buf-fer-ING
They show tenacity
Complete audacity
If used within capacity
To maintain things
Metabolic Melody
Avogadros number is a huge one
Boltzmann's constant's rather miniscule
Values differing enormously
As WE learned in school
Bridge
One set of factors you SHOULD know
The roots of seven and of three et al
Cannot be expressed as a ratio
Oh these numbers all are quite irration-al
Bridge
Its taught in the ivory towers
By professors it's so ballyhooed
Values can have such diffrent powers
That to know them we must have their magnitudes
Three point one four one five nine two six five
No end to Pis digits its absurd
Endlessly reminding me that Ive
BEEN SO OUT-num-bered
