how much 6.00 m naoh must be added to 610.0 ml of a buffer that is 0.0185 m acetic acid ad 0.0235 m sodium acetate to raise the ph to 5.75?
no of mmole of CH3COOH = molarity*volume in ml
= 0.0185*610 = 11.285mmole
no of mmoles of CH3COONa = molarity*volume in ml
= 0.0235*610 = 14.335 mmoles
no of mmoles of NaOH = molarity*volume in ml
= 6*x = 6x mmoles
CH3COOH + NaOH -----------------> CH3COONa + H2O
I 11.285 6x 14.335
C -6x 0 +6x
E 11.285-6x 0 14.335+6x
PH = PKa + log[CH3COONa]/[CH3COOH]
5.75 = 4.75 + log(14.335+6x)/(11.285-6x)
log(14.335+6x)/(11.285-6x) = 5.75-4.75
log(14.335+6x)/(11.285-6x) = 1
(14.335+6x)/(11.285-6x) = 10
(14.335+6x) = 10*(11.285-6x)
x = 1.49
x = 1.49ml
volume of NaOH = 1.49ml
