You are given 60 mL of 0.50 M phosphate buffer, pH = 6.83, to test. The starting composition of the buffer, both in terms of the concentration and the molar quantity of the two major phosphate species, is: Concentration of HPO42−: 0.304 M Molar quantity of HPO42−: 18.2 mmol Concentration of H2PO4−: 0.196 M Molar quantity of H2PO4−: 11.8 mmol You add 1.7 mL of 1.00 M HCl to the buffer. Calculate the molar quantity of H3O+ added as HCl, and the final molar quantity of HPO42− and H2PO4− at equilibrium. H3O+ = HPO42− = H2PO4− = What is the new HPO42−/H2PO4− ratio, and the new pH of the solution? The pKa of H2PO4− is 6.64. Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to calculate the new pH. Now take a fresh 60 mL of the 0.50 M pH 6.83 buffer and add 3.7 mL of 1.00 M NaOH. Using steps similar to those above, calculate the new pH of the solution.
