You are in chemistry lab performing a titration. You were given 15 mL of an aqueous solution with an unknown concentration of acetic acid, to solve through titration with concentrated sodium hydroxide,
. You know that the pKa of acetic acid is 4.75 and that your titrant is 0.1 M sodium hydroxide,
.
The endpoint was determined at 10 mL of sodium hydroxide, . What is the pH after 5 mL of
was added?
Determine which of these solution combinations form a buffer.
Determine which combination of solutions would create a buffer solution.
Determine which solution(s) will yield a buffer solution.
I. 10 mL of 0.5 M HCl + 20 mL of 0.5 M acetate
II. 10 mL of 0.5 M HCl + 10 mL of 0.5 M acetate
III. 10 mL of 0.5 M HCl + 10 mL of 1.0 M acetate
IV. 10 mL of 0.5 M HCl + 10 mL of 1.5 M acetate
