Ka = 3.0 X 10-8. a) Find the pH of the buffer. b) How does the pH compare with the pka? c) How much does the pH change when 2.00 ml of 0.50 M NaOH is added to the buffer? d) What would be the pH change if 2.00 ml of 0.50 M NaOH was added to 200 ml of pure H2O? e) How does this pH change compare to the addition of the same amount of 0.50 M NaOH to the buffer solution (as in c)?
