A 50.00-mL aliquot of 0.0500 M formic acid (Ka = 1.80 x 10-4) is titrated with 0.0500 M strong base. a. What is the pH of the solution before any strong base has been added? b. What is the pH of the solution after 10.00 mL strong base has been added? c. What is the pH of the solution after 25.00 mL strong base has been added?
