Expert Solution

1. HClO + NaClO

weak acid and its salt with strong base is called acid buffer solution.

HClO                                           NaClO

M1 = 0.3                     M2 =                                                       M1 = 0.2M                              M2=

V1   = 50ml                  V2 = 50+300 = 350ml                           V1   = 3000ml                        V2 = 300+50= 350ml

M1V1   = M2V2                                                                                 M1V1   = M2V2          

   M2   = M1V1/V2    = 0.3*50/300 = 0.05M                                   M2   = M1V1/V2   = 0.2*300/350 = 0.1714M

            Ka = 2.9*10^-8

           PKa = -logKa

                     = -log2.9*10^-8   = 7.5376

         PH = PKa + log[NaClO]/[HClO]

                = 7.5376 + log0.1714/0.05

                = 7.5376 + 0.5354   = 8.073 >>>>answer
