pH list

[RosalieM]

I am sure someone has put a list of what solutions have pH 3-14 somewhere on this site but I can't seem to find it (can't search for pH because it's not a long enough word... but I have done some browsing). Can anyone tell me what would be a good solution for pH 8 or 9 and pH 5?

Toothpaste 9.0

I have a list which claims 0.1M H₃BO₃ has a pH of 5.2, 0.1M NaHCO₃ has a pH of 8.4 and 0.05M Na₂B₄O₇ has a pH of 9.2.

I have another list of standard pH solutions produced by adding together various volumes of 0.1M citric acid and 0.2M disodium hydrogen phosphate.
To make a pH5 solution, add 48mL of the citric acid to 52mL of the sodium phosphate.
To make a pH8 solution, add 3mL of the citric acid to 97mL of the sodium phosphate.
Is this what you're after?
