Design a buffer that has a pH of 6.65 using one
of the weak acid/conjugate base systems shown below.
Weak Acid | Conjugate Base | Ka | pKa |
---|---|---|---|
HC2O4- |
C2O42- |
6.4×10-5 |
4.19 |
H2PO4- |
HPO42- |
6.2×10-8 |
7.21 |
HCO3- |
CO32- |
4.8×10-11 |
10.32 |
How many grams of the sodium salt of the weak acid
must be combined with how many grams of the sodium
salt of its conjugate base, to produce 1.00 L of a
buffer that is 1.00 M in the weak base?
grams sodium salt of weak acid = g
grams sodium salt of conjugate base = g
grams sodium salt of weak acid = 435.6
g
grams sodium salt of conjugate base = 142
g
