Expert Solution

Q1.

find pH of solution,

HClO and ClO- is present, so there is buffer formation

pH = pKa + log(ClO-/HClO)

pKa = -log(3.5*10^-8) = 7.45

[ClO-] = 0.363 [HClO] = 0.363

substitute in buffer equation

pH = 7.45+ log(0.363/0.363)

pH = 7.45

Q2.

the net ionic equation for 0.082 mol of HCl V = 1 L so

[HClO] = 0.363 + 0.082 = 0.445

[Cl-O] = 0.363 - 0.082 = 0.281

pH = pKa + log(ClO-/HClO)

recalculate pH

pH = 7.45 + log(0.281 /0.445 )

pH = 7.250

net ionic:

ClO-(aq) + H3O+(aq) --> HClO(aq) + H2O(l)
