To solve this problem,
we can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation which relates the pH to the measure
of acidity pKa. The equation is given as:<span>
<span>pH = pKa + log ([base]/[acid]) ---> 1</span></span>
Where,
[base] = concentration
of C2H3O2
in molarity or moles
<span>[acid] = concentration of HC2H3O2 in molarity or moles</span>
For the sake of easy calculation, let us assume that:
[base] = 1
[acid] = x
<span>
Therefore using equation 1,
4.24 = 4.74 + log (1 / x)
<span>log (1 / x) = - 0.5
1 / x = 0.6065 </span></span>
x =
1.65<span>
The required ratio of C2H3O2 /HC2H3O2 <span>
is 1:1.65 or 3:5. </span></span>
The correct answer is B. The concentration of a solution does not decreases when you add more solute to the solvent. Instead, the concentration increases. Concentration is expressed as the amount of solute per unit of solvent. Therefore, increasing the solute, increases this value and increasing the solvent, decreases this value.
