Chapter 3.3, Problem 4CC
Summary Introduction

To evaluate: The change in pH of 1L pure water and 1L acetic acid solution if 0.01 mol of a strong acid is added to both.

Concept introduction:

An acid is a substance that releases hydrogen ions which lowers the pH of the solution. This occurs when water is added to it. A buffer is a solution that maintains a constant pH.

Calculate the pH of a solution if  [H3O+] = 3.4 x 10-2M Indicate whether the solution is acidic, basic, or neutral
Calculate the pH of a buffer that contains 0.75 M acetic acid and 0.35 M acetate ion in 1 L solution. What will the pH of the buffer be upon the addition of 100.0 mL of 1.0 M NaOH? (Ka of acetic acid is 1.75 x 10-5 M)
consider pyruvic acid with Ka = 1.4x10^-4. what initial molarity of pyruvic acid would be needed to make 500mL of solution with a pH = 2.5 without using the henderson - hasselbalch equation( please step by step answer and don't use ASI Answer please)
