To calculate the pH of a one molar ammonium formate solution, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Hydrolysis of Ammonium Formate Ammonium formate (NH4HCOO) is a salt that, when dissolved in water, undergoes hydrolysis to produce formic acid (HCOOH) and ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH). The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{NH}_4\text{HCOO} \rightleftharpoons \text{HCOOH} + \text{NH}_4\text{OH} \] ### Step 2: Identify the Given Values We are given: ...
