The optimum pH of formic acid - formate buffer is 3.75
<h3>What is pH? </h3>
- pH is a measure of how acidic/basic water is. The range goes from 0 - 14, with 7 being neutral. pHs of less than 7 indicate acidity, whereas a pH of greater than 7 indicates a base.
- pH is really a measure of the relative amount of free hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in the water.
What is Buffer ?
A substance or a solution which resists any changes in pH, when acid or alkali is added to it.
pH = pKa + log[base] / [acid]
Considering equimolar concentration of acid and base
pH = 3.75 + log(x)/(x)
pH = 3.75 + log (1)
pH = 3.75 + 0
pH = 3.75
Hence,
The optimum pH of formic acid - formate buffer is 3.75

Hey :)
molarity<span> is affected by </span>temperature<span> because morality is simply a measure on the volume of a particular </span>solution<span>, and the volume of a substance will be negatively or positively affected by changes in </span>temperature. In theory, volume will increase<span> when </span>temperature increases<span>, a reciprocal effect of </span><span>molarity</span>
