- Hello,
I have two similar tasks here, but I don't really see any similarities in how they are "treated".
First question:
Calculate the pH of 0.01M NaCl.
Second question:
Find pH if you dissolve 0.2 mol NaAc and 0.1 mol HCl in water.
- Relevant Equations
- .
First question:
Here they just conclude that NaCl is neither acidic or basic, and that pH is unchanged.Second question:
Here I thought that the pH would just be the concentration of HCl, as NaAc is a salt, but in the solution they instead say that H+ will combine with Ac- to form HAc. Why is these two questions different? To me they seem very similar...
