The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is used to calculate the pH of a buffer solution or buffer, from a pK (the acid dissociation constant) and the equilibrium concentrations of acid or base, acid or conjugate base.

Derivation

Suppose an acid AH with partial decoupling. The balance is:
and associated dissociation constant will be:
Solving [ H 3 O +] of the constant Dissociation:
Taking logarithms on both sides and applying the property of logarithms to a product we get:
E ratio:
