To make a buffer, a student mixes H2CO3 with NaHCO3 to form a solution which is 0.012 M carbonic acid (H2CO3) and 0.012 M (NaHCO3). The pH of the buffer solution is 6.37

The student adds 10.0 mL of 0.100 M NaOH to a fresh solution of his buffer. Calculate the pH after the addition of NaOH.

Answer #1

We know, Moles = Molarity (M)x Volume (V in L) Molarity of H2CO3= 0.012 M So Moles H2CO3 = 0.012 * 1.00 mol Molarity of HCO3

OH- addition to buffer : When OH- is added to the buffer, it reacts with acid H2CO3 and produce HCO3-. So during the addition
