Answer:
a) pH = 4.68 (more effective)
b) pH =4.44.
Explanation:
The pH of buffer solution is obtained by Henderson Hassalbalch's equation.
The equation is:
a) pKa of acetic acid = 4.74
[salt] = [CH₃COONa] = 1.4 M
[acid] = [CH₃COOH] = 1.6 M
This is more effective as there is very less difference in the concentration of salt and acid.
b) pKa of acetic acid = 4.74
[salt] = [CH₃COONa] = 0.1 M
[acid] = [CH₃COOH] = 0.2 M
