The pHpH of the solution containing 50mL50mL each of 0.10M0 . 10M sodium acetate and 0.01M0 . 01M acetic acid is
[Given pKa{pK}_{a} of CH3COOH=4.57{CH}_{3}COOH = 4 . 57]

Options

  1. A3.573 . 57
  2. B4.574 . 57
  3. C2.572 . 57
  4. D5.575 . 57

Correct answer

D. 5.575 . 57

Step-by-step solution

The given solution is an acidic buffer solution.

According to the Henderson equation for acidic buffer,

pH=pKa+log⁡10[salt][acid]pH = {pK}_{a} + \log_{10}\dfrac{\left[salt\right]}{\left[acid\right]}

Given that,

pKa=4.57[salt]=[sodiumacetate]=0.1M[Acid]=[Aceticacid]=0.01M{pK}_{a} = 4 . 57\left[salt\right] = \left[sodiumacetate\right] = 0 . 1M\left[Acid\right] = \left[Aceticacid\right] = 0 . 01M

Hence, the

pH=4.57+log0.10.01=4.57+1=5.57pH = 4 . 57 + log\dfrac{0 . 1}{0 . 01} = 4 . 57 + 1 = 5 . 57
