A conjugate acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A") is mixed to make
buffer solutions. When 0.50 mol HA and 0.50 mol A are mixed into
1.00 L solution, the pH of the solution is 4.87. Calculate the pH of the
buffer solution by mixing 0.25 mol HA and 0.75 mol A into 1.00 L
solution. Your pH value should have the form of XXX, XX.X, X.XX or
0.XXX.
