Just breaking stuff so yea that’s it
It takes into account the different molecular masses of the different chemicals by providing a fixed and standardised number of molecules/ atoms for chemicals to be measured
Answer:
pH = 7.8
Explanation:
The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation may be used to solve the problem:
pH = pKa + log([A⁻] / [HA])
The solution of concentration 0.001 M is a formal concentration, which means that it is the sum of the concentrations of the different forms of the acid. In order to find the concentration of the deprotonated form, the following equation is used:
[HA] + [A⁻] = 0.001 M
[A⁻] = 0.001 M - 0.0002 M = 0.0008 M
The values can then be substituted into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:
pH = 7.2 + log(0.0008M/0.0002M) = 7.8
