A chemistry graduate student is given 100. mL of a 1.10M benzoic acid (HC6H5CO₂) solution. Benzoic acid is a weak acid with K₁=6.3 × 10. What mass of KC6H5CO₂ should the student dissolve in the HC H,CO₂ solution to turn it into a buffer with pH = 4.58? You may assume that the volume of the solution doesn't change when the KC6H5CO₂ is dissolved in it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to 2 significant digits. X S
