Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation on the solution before HCl addition: pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA]) 8.0 = 7.4 + log([A-]/[HA]); [A-]/[HA] = 4.0. (equation 1) Also, 0.1 L * 1.0 mol/L = 0.1 moles total of the compound. Therefore, [A-] + [HA] = 0.1 (equation 2) Solving the simultaneous equations 1 and 2 gives: A- = 0.08 moles AH = 0.02 moles Adding strong acid reduces A- and increases AH by the same amount. 0.03 L * 1 mol/L = 0.03 moles HCl will be added, soA- = 0.08 - 0.03 = 0.05 moles AH = 0.02 + 0.03 = 0.05 moles Therefore, after HCl addition, [A-]/[HA] = 0.05 / 0.05 = 1.0 Resubstituting into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation: pH = 7.4 + log(1.0) = 7.4, the final pH.
The correct answer among the choices given is option B. The one that describes a proper use of eyeglasses is that using diverging lenses to help a nearsighted person by moving the image from in front of the retina to the retina. For this, t<span>he lenses will diverge the light before it reach the eye and aim it to the retina, correcting our nearsighted visual.</span>
