To calculate pH of a buffer you need to use the Henderson Hasselbalch equation:
Ka is acid dissociation constant which corresponds to the acid dissociation of : H2PO4- → HPO42- + H+
Ka for that = 6.3 x 10-8 . pKa = -log( 6.3 x 10-8) = 7.2
Here,salt = HPO42- = Na2HPO4 and acid = H2PO4- = NaH2PO4
[…] denotes concentration in molarity.
Now, Molarity = Number of moles/Volume in L.
Both the salt and acid are mixed in the same container, so they will have same volume ( 2.5 L).
Thus, when taking the ratio of their molarities, the volume will cancel out.
Thus, effectively, [Salt]/[Acid] = ( number of moles of Na2HPO4 ) /( number of moles of NaH2PO4)
The mass in grams of the compounds is given. To convert grams to moles, use :
Number of moles = Mass ( in g) / Molar mass
The molar masses are - Na2HPO4 = 142 g/mol and NaH2PO4 = 120 g/mol
So, number of moles of Na2HPO4 = (48.5 g)/(142 g/mol) = 0.342 moles
And number of moles of NaH2PO4= ( 34.4 g)/(120 g/mol) = 0.287 moles
So, putting the values :

2 points 9. Using your textbook and class notes as a reference, indicate if cresol red would be a good acid-base indicator for this titration. Justify your answer using your knowledge of titrations curves and indicators. if we use cresol red which has a ph range of 8-10.5 it can good indicator because our titration is Naoh and ASA i.e strong base and weak acid so equivalence point is around ph=9. Cresol red can indicate this equivalence point by changing...
