The molar ratio of HPO42- to H2PO4- in a solution is 1.4. Calculate the pH of the solution. Phosphoric acid (H3PO4) is a triprot
1 answer:
Given is the ratio of conjugate base and conjugate acid of phosphoric acid. pH of a substance is the concentration of the hydrogen ions in its solution and higher this concentration lower is the value of pH.
pKa value is a measure of the strength of acid, it is the negative log of acid dissociation constant Ka.

The given compound is being synthesized by condensing Acetone and Pivaldehyde (Trimethylacetaldehyde).
First Acetone is treated with Base, the base abstracts the mildly acidic proton present at alpha position to carbonyl group. The resulting specie called enolate act as a nucleophile and attacks on highly reactive aldehyde which upon dehydration yields the Aldol Product. The Reaction is as follow,
