You need to produce a buffer solution that has a pH of 5.26. You already have a solution that contains 10. mmol (millimoles) of acetic acid. How many millimoles of acetate (the conjugate base of acetic acid) will you need to add to this solution

The question is incomplete, complete question is :

You need to produce a buffer solution that has a pH of 5.50. You already have a solution that contains 10 mmol (millimoles) of acetic acid. How many millimoles of acetate (the conjugate base of acetic acid) will you need to add to this solution? The pka of acetic acid is 4.74.

33.11 millimoles of acetate we will need to add to this solution.

Explanation:

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

Where :

tex]pK_a[/tex] = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of acid

[salt] = Concentration of salt

[Acid] = Concentration of salt

We have:

pH = 5.26

[salt] = = ?

[acid] =

33.11 millimoles of acetate we will need to add to this solution.

if the concentration of products is decreased, the equilibrium will shift toward the products). add an inert gas (one that is not involved in the reaction) to the constant-volume reaction mixture: this will increase the total pressure of the system, but will have no effect on the equilibrium condition.
