Calculate the pH of a buffered solution that contains 0.150 M benzoic acid (C&HSCO2H) (Ka = 6.4 x 10-5) and 0.200 M sodium benzoate (C6HSCO Na). | Hint: CHsCO2Na completely dissociates in water and benzoic acid is a monoprotic acid. C,H;CO,Na(aq) → C,H;CO2 (aq) + Na* (aq) C,H;CO,H(aq) + H20(1) = C,H;CO2 (aq) + H30* (aq)

Calculate the pH of a buffered solution that contains 0.150 M benzoic acid (C&HSCO2H)
(K = 6.4 x 10-) and 0.200 M sodium benzoate (C&HSCO,Na). |
Hint: CHsCO2Na completely dissociates in water and benzoic acid is a monoprotic acid.
C,H;CO,Na(aq) → C;H;CO, (aq) + Na* (aq)
C,H;CO,H(aq) + H20(1) = C,H;Co, (aq) + H30* (aq)
