We have that the Volume of sodium acetate  is mathematically given as

  • V_n= 173.78 mL

Solving for volume using pH Equation

Question Parameters:

  • 0.2 M sodium acetate
  • should be added to 200 mL of 0.1 M acetic acid
  • to make a buffer of pH 5

pH value also known as Potential of Hydrogen is use to know the basisity or acidity of a solution

The scale of 1 to 14 shows the thread of how from acidity to aka alkalinity

Generally the equation for the pH  is mathematically given as

[tex]pH = pKa + log \frac{[salt]}{[acid]}[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]log \frac{[salt]}{[acid]} = 0.24[/tex]

salt = 1.73*[acid]

acid = 200*0.1

acid = 20.

Hence  volume of sodium acetate

[tex]V_n= \frac{34.76}{0.2} \\\\V_n= 173.78 mL[/tex]
