You have a 593.3 mL sample of 2.511 M HA (Ka = 8.56 ⋅ 10 − 2 ). Calculate the pH of the best buffer.

Solutions

Expert Solution

HA ------------------------> H+   + A-

2.511                          0             0

-x                             +x               +x

2.511-x                     x                x

Ka = x^2 / 2.511-x = 8.56 x 10^-2

        x^2 + 8.56 x 10^-2 x - 0.2149 = 0

        x = 0.4227

    [H+] = 0.4227 M

pH = -log [H+]

pH = -log (0.4227)

pH = 0.374
