The stockroom contains 1M NaAc (Sodium acetate), 1M HAc (Acetic acid), distilled water and strong acids and bases. You need to create a buffer solution that has a pH of 4.75 such that when 1mL of 10M HCl is added to 100ml   of your buffer, the resulting pH is 3.75 (+/-0.1). What concentrations of HAc and NaAc do you need to create the buffer solution?
