A buffer solution was prepared that contained 0.60 M hydrogen fluoride, HF (Ka = 7.2 x
104) and 1.00M potassium fluoride, KF. The total volume was 250 mL.
(a) What ions and molecules are present in the solution? List them in order of decreasing
concentration:

(b) What is the pH of the buffer solution described above?
(c) What is the pH of 100. mL of the buffer solution if you add 100. x 10-3 g of NaOH? Assume
negligible change in volume. (USEFUL INFORMATION: MM NaOH = 39.997 g mol-1)
4) A highly toxic hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is a weak acid. A chemical engineer plans to determine
pH of a 50 mL sample of HCN (0.10 M) in a titration process. To this end, she used 0.20 M NaOH
as a titrant in varying volumes. Calculate the pH of the solution at the following points:
(Ka for HCN=6.2×10-¹0)
(a) Before addition of NaOH (initial pH),
(b) After 10.00 mL of titrant addition,
(c) After 25.00 mL of titrant addition,
