Grade 12Physical ChemistryThe pKa of acetic acid and pKb of ammonium hydroxide are 4.76 and 4.75 respectively. Calculate the pH of ammonium acetate solution. ? sudhanshu 12 Years agoGrade 12
mgayathri10 Years agowhen a weak acid and a weak baseare mixed to form a solution,the ph of the solution is determined by following formulaph=7+1/2[pka-pkb] =7+1/2[4.76-4.75] =7+1/2[0.01] =7+0.005ph=7.005
Kushagra Madhukar6 Years agoDear student,Please find the attached solution to your problem. We know, when a weak acid and a weak base are mixed to form a solution, the resulting ph of the solution is determined by following formulapH = 7 + 0.5[pka-pkb] = 7 + 0.5[4.76 - 4.75] = 7 + 0.5[0.01] = 7 + 0.005pH = 7.005 Hope it helps.Thanks and regards,Kushagra
