A buffer solution is prepared in such a way that the concentration of propanoic acid is 1.8 x 10M and the concentration of sodium propanoate is 1.9 x 10° M. The buffer equilibrium is described by C2H;COOH(aq) + H,O(1) = H30*(aq) + C,H;COO¯(aq) propanoic acid propanoate ion with K,= 1.34 x 10. If the concentration of the sodium propanoate were doubled while the acid concentration remained the same, calculate the pH of the resulting solution. pH =
