Hydrogen peroxide is a weak acid. Generally, acids distinguishable by the hydrogen proton, while bases are generally anything with a hydroxide. For instance, hydrochloric acid, or HCl, can be distinguished by the H+ bonded with Cl-. NaOH on the other hand, is a bond between Na+ and OH-.
Acid-base buffers confer resistance to a change in the pH of a solution when hydrogen ions (protons) or hydroxide ions are added or removed. An acid-base buffer typically consists of a weak acid, and its conjugate base (salt) (see Equations 2-4 in the blue box, below). Buffers work because the concentrations of the weak acid and its salt are large compared to the amount of protons or hydroxide ions added or removed.
