Explanation / Answer

Buffer

Phthalic acid

mass of phthalic acid = 0.823 g

moles of phthalic acid = 0.823 g/166.14 g/mol = 0.005 mol

Molarity of phthalic acid stock solution = 0.005 mol/0.05 L = 0.1 M

[*We have taken volume of solution 0.05 L for preparation of phthalic acid solution, If this value changes the molarity would change accordingly]

Volume of phthalic acid stock solution taken to prepare buffer = 0.04 L

moles of phthalic acid in this solution = 0.1 M x 0.04 L = 0.004 mol

Volume of 0.1 M NaOH taken to prepare buffer = 0.02 L

moles of NaOH = 0.1 M x 0.02 L = 0.002 mol

moles of NaPhthalate formed = 0.002 mol

molarity of NaPhthalate solution = 0.002 mol/0.06 L = 0.033 M

moles of phthalic acid remained = 0.002 mol

molarity of Phthalic acid solution = 0.002 mol/0.06 L = 0.033 M

pH = pKa + log([Naphthalate]/[phthalic acid])

     = 3.5 + log(0.033/0.033)

     = 3.5

Acetic acid

molarity of acetic acid solution = 0.1 M

Volume of acetic acid solution taken to prepare buffer = 0.04 L

moles of acetic acid before mixing = 0.1 M x 0.04 L = 0.004 mol

molarity of NaOH solution = 0.1 M

Volume of NaOH solution taken to prepare the buffer = 0.02 L

moles of NaOH before mixing = 0.1 M x 0.02 L = 0.002 mol

moles of sodium acetate formed = 0.002 mol

pH = pKa + log(sodium acetate formed/acetic acid remained)

      = 4.74 + log(0.002/0.002)

      = 4.74
