A quantity of 26.4 mL of a 0.45 M acetic acid (CH3COOH) solution is added to a 31.9 mL of a 0.37 M sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution. What is the pH of the final solution?
First the rxn is as follows:
CH3COOH + NaOH -> CH3COONa + H2O
then we have to look for the limit reagent:
and
using the henderson hasselbalch eq:
then pKa = 4.757
and pH = 5.94
