Similar to acetic acid, propionic acid (CH3CH2COOH) is a weak acid (HA), which inhibits the growth of mold and some bacteria and also used to make pesticides and pharmaceuticals. Suppose 10.00-mL of 0.8000 M propionic acid (CH3CH2COOH), is titrated with 0.2000M NaOH. Ka for propionic acid is 1.4 x 10-5 . What is the pH after addition of 30.00 mL of NaOH to the propionic acid solution?
