The concentration of formic acid in the buffer solution = C = 0.75 M = 0.75 mol/L
Volume of the buffer to be made = 500 mL = 0.500 L
Hence, the number of moles of formic acid needed to make the buffer is
Formula of formic acid = .
Hence, the molecular mass of formic acid can be calculated by adding the atomic masses of each element present.
Hence, the mass of formic acid needed to make the buffer is
Similarly, we need to have a concentration of 0.75 M for sodium formate in 500. mL of the buffer.
Hence, the number of moles of sodium formate needed is
Now, formula of sodium formate is .
Hence, the molecular mass of sodium formate can be calculated as
Hence, the mass of sodium formate needed to make the buffer can be calculated as
Hence, we need 17.26 g of formic acid and 25.50 g of sodium formate to make the needed quantity of buffer .
