enumerate the steps necessary to create a Phosphate Buffer NaH2PO4 - K2HPO4 with a final volume of 500 mL, a concentration of 0.10M, and a pH of 7.20 using 0.20 M NaH2PO4 and solid K2HPO4. Nota bene: Ka equals 6.3 x 10-8. (show computation as well) For solid K2HPO4, calculate for the mass (based from calculated moles of salt) rather than the volume since this is a solid substance.

Question

enumerate the steps necessary to create a Phosphate Buffer NaH2PO4 - K2HPO4 with a final volume of 500 mL, a concentration of 0.10M, and a pH of 7.20 using 0.20 M NaH2PO4 and solid K2HPO4. Nota bene: Ka equals 6.3 x 10-8.

(show computation as well)

For solid K2HPO4, calculate for the mass (based from calculated moles of salt) rather than the volume since this is a solid substance.
