Question

3 g of acetic acid is added to 250 mL of 0.1 M HCl and the solution made up to 500 mL. To 20 mL of this solution 1 2 mL of 5 M NaOH is added. The pH of the solution is? [Given: pKa of acetic acid = 4.75 , molar mass of acetic acid = 60 g / m o l , l o g 3 = 0.4771 ] Neglect any changes in volume., 2.61, 4.52, 5.22, 8.78
