You have 1.00 L of 0.10 M formic acid, HCOOH, whose Ka = 1.8 × 10–4. You want to bubble into the formic acid solution sufficient HCl gas to decrease the pH of the formic acid solution by 1.0 pH unit. Calculate the volume of HCl (liters) that must be used at STP to bring about the desired change in pH. Assume no volume change has occurred in the solution due to the addition of HCl gas.
