Acetic acid (molecular weight = 60.05 g/mol) and sodium acetate (molecular weight = 82.03 g/mol) can form a buffer with an acidic pH. In a 500.0 mL volumetric flask, the following components were added together and mixed well, and then diluted to the 500.0 mL mark: 100.0 mL of 0.300 M acetic acid, 1.00 g of sodium acetate, and 0.16 g of solid NaOH (molecular weight = 40.00 g/mol).
What is the final pH? The Ka value for acetic acid is 1.8 x 10^-5

(Hint: what isthe key concept related to the coefficients in balanced chemical reactions?)

In the solution containing both 0.10 M acetic acid and 0.10 M sodium acetate, the acetic acid undergoes ionization. The chemical equation for this ionization reaction is the same as for a solution containing acetic acid alone. The difference is that the initial concentration of acetate ion (before any ionization reaction occurs) for the solution containing acetic acid alone is zero, whereas the initial concentration of acetate ion is 0.10 M in your solution containing both acetic acid and sodium...
