A chemistry graduate student is given 300. mL of a 1.80M acetic acid (HCH, CO,) solution. Acetic acid is a weak acid with K,=1.8 × 10 °. What mass of NaCH,CO, should the student dissolve in the HCH,CO, solution to turn it into a buffer with pH =4.96? You may assume that the volume of the solution doesn't change when the NaCH,CO, is dissolved in it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to 2 significant digits. Ox10 ?

Question
A chemistry graduate student is given 300. mL of a 1.80M acetic acid (HCH,CO,) solution. Acetic acid is a weak acid with
-5
K.=1.8 × 10
What mass of NaCH,CO, should the student dissolve in the HCH,CO, solution to turn it into a buffer with
pH =4.96?
You may assume that the volume of the solution doesn't change when the NaCH,CO, is dissolved in it. Be sure your
answer has a unit symbol, and round it to 2 significant digits.
