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.
3. A formic acid buffer is prepared with 0.010 M each of formic acid (HCOOH) and sodium
formate (NaCOOH). The Ka for formic acid is 1.8 x 104. What is the pH of the solution?
What is the pH if 0.0020 M of solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is added to a liter of
buffer? What would be the pH of the sodium hydroxide solution without the buffer?
What would the pH have been after adding sodium hydroxide if the buffer concentrations
had been 0.10 M instead of 0.010 M?

Calcium hydroxide can be used to neutralize the water in lakes that have been "killed" by acid
rain. Ecologists hope that the original plants and animals will become re-established.
.
If the concentration of sulfuric acid in an acid lake is 1.2 x 10³ mol/L, and 1000 kg of calcium
hydroxide is added to the lake, what is the volume of water in the lake that can be
neutralized?
What is the original pH of the lake?
