Let M be the solubility of silver benzoate in water.


. This is solubility of silver benzoate in pure water.



Benzoate ions combine with protons to form benzoic acid but hydrogen ion concentration is constant due to buffer solution.

     




Let y M be the soubiity in the buffer solution.






Thus, silver benzoate is 3.32 times more soluble in buffer.
