This problem could be solved easily using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation used for preparing buffer solutions. The equation is written below:
pH = pKa + log[(salt/acid]
Where salt represents the molarity of salt (sodium lactate), while acid is the molarity of acid (lactic acid).
Moles of salt = 1 mol/L * 25 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.025 moles salt
Moles of acid = 1 mol/L* 60 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.06 moles acid
Total Volume = (25 mL + 60 mL)*(1 L/1000 mL) = 0.085 L
Molarity of salt = 0.025 mol/0.085 L = 0.29412 M
Molarity of acid = 0.06 mol/0.085 L = 0.70588 M
Thus,
pH = 3.86 + log(0.29412/0.70588)
pH = 3.48
Answer:I think it could be A or B but I would choose A.
