Math Problem Statement
A buffer is made by adding 0.300 mol HC2H3O2 and 0.300 mol NaC2H3O2 to enough water to make 1.00 L of solution. Ka=1.8x10-5
(a) What is the pH of the buffer ____
(b) Calculate the pH ____ of this solution after 0.020 mol of HCl is added.
C2H3O2- (aq) + H3O+(aq) <====> HC2H3O2 (aq) + H2O(l)
