Question

An analytical chemist is titrating 

189.6mL

 of a 

0.6500M

 solution of butanoic acid 

HC3H7CO2

 with a 

0.3800M

 solution of 

KOH

. The 

pKa

 of butanoic acid is 

4.82

. Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 

214.8mL

 of the 

KOH

 solution to it.

 

Note for advanced students: you may assume the final volume equals the initial volume of the solution plus the volume of 

KOH

 solution added.

 

Round your answer to 

2

 decimal places.
