42.

A buffer is prepared using acetic acid, CH3COOH, (a weak acid, pKa = 4.75) and sodium acetate, CH3COONa (which provides acetate ions, the conjugate base), according to the following proportions:

 

Volume of CH3COOH(aq):   139.0 mL

Concentration of CH3COOH(aq):  1.103 M

 

Volume of CH3COONa(aq):  127.0 mL

Concentration of CH3COONa(aq):  1.259 M

 

Calculate the pH of this buffer after the addition of 20.00 mL of 3.00 M sodium hydroxide, NaOH, a strong base.
