100 ml of pure water is added and the pH is still 4.75. Use the henderson hasselbalch equation to explain what happened.When you dilute a buffer, you are not changing the ratio of conjugate base to conjugate acid. you are only changing their absolute concentrations.......

H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [Acetate-]/[Acetic acid]

When you dilute a buffer, you are not changing the ratio of conjugate base to conjugate acid. you are only changing their absolute concentrations. Since pH depends on the ratio of those concentrations, pH of a buffer does not change on dilution.
