(a) Calculate the ratio of dissolved benzoic acid to benzoic ion that will exist in solution at equilibrium at pH of 2.00. The acid equilibrium constant (Ka) for benzoic acid is 6.46x10^-5. Note that this calculation doesn't account for the benzoic acid that has precipitated from solution, but you can assume that the higher the ratio, the more benzoic acid will precipitate. (b) Carry out the same calculation for a pH of 4.00, and explain why it was important to reduce the pH to below 4 in this experiment.

What is the pH of a 0.1M solution of benzoic acid? ( Write answer to the hundredths place) KA(benzoic acid) = 6.46x10-5
A chemistry graduate student is given 450.mL of a 0.70M benzoic acid HC6H5CO2 solution. Benzoic acid is a weak acid with =Ka×6.310−5. What mass of KC6H5CO2 should the student dissolve in the HC6H5CO2 solution to turn it into a buffer with pH =3.79? You may assume that the volume of the solution doesn't change when the KC6H5CO2 is dissolved in it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to 2 significant digits.
