I have attached a picture of a problem that I'm having a hard with. Could you help and break down the steps for me? Thank you.

A volume of 500.0 mL of 0.130 M NaOH is added to 625 mL of 0.250 M weak acid (Ka = 2.55 x 10-5). What is the pH
of the resulting buffer?
HA(aq) + OH (aq) → H,O(1) + A^(aq)
pH =

Expert Solution

Step 1

Buffer solutions are the solutions which resist the change in pH when small amount of acid or base is added to it. These are made up of weak acid and its conjugate base. The pH for such solution is calculated using Handerson Hasselbalch equation.
