Calculating pH Changes in Buffers
A buffer is made by adding 0.300 mol CH3COOH and 0.300 mol CH3COONa to enough water to make 1.000 L of solution. The pH of the buffer is 4.74 (Sample Exercise 17.1).
(a) Calculate the pH of this solution after 5.0 mL of 4.0 M NaOH(aq) solution is added., (b) For comparison, calculate the pH of a solution made by adding 5.0 mL of 4.0 M NaOH(aq) solution to 1.000 L of pure water.
Determine
(a) the pH of the original buffer described in Sample Exercise 17.6 after the addition of 0.020 mol HCl and, (b) the pH of the solution that would result from the addition of 0.020 mol HCl to 1.000 L of pure water.
