Answer:
6,45mmol/L of NaOH you need to add to reach this pH.
Explanation:
CH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺ <em>pka = 4,74</em>
Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for acetate buffer is:
5,0 = 4,74 + log₁₀
Solving:
1,82 = <em>(1)</em>
As total concentration of acetate buffer is:
10 mM = [CH₃COOH] + [CH₃COO⁻] <em>(2)</em>
Replacing (2) in (1)
<em>[CH₃COOH] = 3,55 mM</em>
And
<em>[CH₃COO⁻] = 6,45 mM</em>
Knowing that:
<em>CH₃COOH + NaOH → CH₃COO⁻ + Na⁺ + H₂O</em>
Having in the first 10mmol/L of CH₃COOH, you need to add <em>6,45 mmol/L of NaOH. </em>to obtain in the last 6,45mmol/L of CH₃COO⁻ and 3,55mmol/L of CH₃<em>COOH </em>.
