Assume a container starts with 3.9 x1025 HA particles dissolved in water and none of its conjugate. Sodium hydroxide is then added to neutralize the acid until the number of HA particles = 8.7x1024. Write out the chemical equation for the neutralization reaction and calculate the number of A‐ particles that are in the container after the neutralization.
chemical equation for the neutralization :
HA + NaOH ------------> NaA + H2O
number of HA particles = 3.9 x 10^25
number of HA particles neutralize = 8.7 x 10^24
HA particels remain = 3.9 x 10^25 - 8.7 x 10^24
= 3.03 x 10^25
number of A- particles present = 3.03 x 10^25
