Hi Steve, I've been doing a lot of acid and base problems lately. They seem pretty easy but I have two question that I don't get:
A buffer solution is prepared by taking 0.400 moles of acetic acid (pKa = 4.74) and 0.250 moles of sodium acetate in sufficient water to make 1.400 L of solution. What is the pH of this solution? (A) 4.46 (B) 4.56 (C) 4.86 (D) 4.96 ANS: (C) but I keep on getting pH 4.53
A mixture is made using 50.0 mL of 0.20 mol L�? HCl(aq) and 150.0 mL of distilled water. What is the pH of this solution? I think I'm having some trouble with the unit conversion in this one... do I actually need the concentration of distilled water to calculate this question?? (A) 1.30 (B) 13.00 (C) 6.48 (D) 9.16 ANS: (A)
Thank you
