Question

Calculate the amount of solid sodium acetate NaC 2 H 3 O 2 which must be added to 0.300 L of a 0.50 M acetic acid, HC 2 H 3 O 2 solution to give a buffer with a pH of 5.00 (hintAssume a negligible change in volume as the solid is added). Express your answer in grams as scientific notation using two significant digits (hint: Henderson-Hasselbach).
HC 2 H 3 O 2(aq) +H 2 O (l) rightleftharpoons H 3 O^ + (oo)+C 2 H 3 O 2 ( infty)
