<u>Answer:</u> The volume of acid and water that must be mixed will be 4.8 L and 11.2 L
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Volume of mixture = 16 L
Percent of acid present = 30 %
Calculating the percentage of acid present in the mixture:
The mixture is made entirely of acid and water.
Volume of acid in the mixture = 4.8 L
Volume of water in the mixture = 16 - 4.8 = 11.2 L
Hence, the volume of acid and water that must be mixed will be 4.8 L and 11.2 L
Answer: the pH of the solution is 4.52
Explanation:
Consider the weak acid as Ha, it is dissociated as expressed below
HA H⁺ + A⁻
the Henderson -Haselbach equation can be expressed as;
pH = pKa + log( [A⁻] / [HA])
the weak acid is dissociated into H⁺ and A⁻ ions in the solution.
now the conjugate base of the weak acid HA is
HA(aq) {weak acid} H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) {conjugate base}
so now we calculate the value of Kₐ as well as pH value by substituting the values of the concentrations into the equation;
pKₐ = -logKₐ
pKₐ = -log ( 7.4×10⁻⁵ )
pKₐ = 4.13
now thw pH is
pH = pKₐ + log( [A⁻] / [HA])
pH = 4.13 + log( [0.540] / [0.220])
pH = 4.13 + 0.3899
pH = 4.5199 = 4.52
Therefore the pH of the solution is 4.52
