Question
Like other people, I have been able to do more cooking and baking during COVID quarantine and remote teaching and learning. One of the things that I have been learning to make is Irish brown bread, a rather tasty version of a “soda bread.” The bread is called a soda bread because it has baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) in it. Sodium bicarbonate is the conjugate base of carbonic acid. What is the pH of a 0.350 M solution of sodium bicarbonate? (pKa of carbonic acid = 6.35)
