Phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) is a triprotic acid with pKa values of 2.12, 7.21, and 12.32. It is a useful buffer solution for pH values near the pKa values. You have a 0.100 M solution of phosphate buffer with a pH of 2.50. How many mL of 0.500 M NaOH solution must be added to 1.00 L of this buffer solution to convert it to a buffer at pH 7.70?
