Utilizing Henderson-Hasselbach Equation, how to solve the given equation below? With the pKa value of 3.75. Compute the pH of a solution containing 0.171 M formic acid and 0.53 M sodium formate.
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.

thank you, I would like to have a follow-up question. Would you get an answer of 4.05 pH if the value of your formic acid is 0.050 M while your sodium formate is 0.10 M? and still the same pKa which is 3.75?
