What is the pH (answer in 2 decimals) of a solution containing 0.050 M sodium formate (NaCOOH) and 0.15 M formic acid (HCOOH). The Ka of formic acid is 1.77*10-4.   You are asked to prepare a buffer with a pH = 3.00. Starting with 0.250 L of 0.750 M HF, how much of sodium fluoride (in g) is needed? The Ka of HF is 7.20*10-4 and the MW of sodium fluoride is 41.99 g/mol.
