AI Generated Solution

To calculate the pH of the buffer solution containing 0.1 mole of acetic acid and 0.15 mole of sodium acetate, we can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation: ### Step 1: Identify the components We have: - Acetic acid (weak acid) = 0.1 moles - Sodium acetate (conjugate base) = 0.15 moles - \( K_a \) for acetic acid = \( 1.75 \times 10^{-5} \) ...
