Question

An analytical chemist is titrating 

120.0mL

 of a 

0.9100M

 solution of formic acid 

H2CO2

 with a 

1.100M

 solution of 

NaOH

. The 

pKa

 of formic acid is 

3.74

. Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 

112.5mL

 of the 

NaOH

 solution to it.

 

Note for advanced students: you may assume the final volume equals the initial volume of the solution plus the volume of 

NaOH

 solution added.

 

Round your answer to 

2

 decimal places.
