Calculate the pH of a 0.46 M solution of C5H5NHCl (Kb for C5H5N = 1.7 x 10-9). Record your pH value to 2 decimal places. Calculate the pH of a 0.12 M solution of RbOCl (Ka for HOCl = 3.5 x 10-8). Record your pH value to 2 decimal places.
Added by Melissa M.
Step 1
46 M solution of C5H5NHCl using the Kb value for C5H5N: \[ pOH = -\log(1.7 \times 10^{-9}) + \log(0.46) = 5.33 \] ** Show more…

What is the pH of a solution containing 0.42 M HOCl (Ka = 3.5 x 10-8) and 3.76 M NaOCl (Kb = 2.9 x 10-7)?

Calculate the pH of a buffer made from 0.65 mol of C5H5NHCl and 0.20 mol of C5H5N (Kb = 1.7 * 10^-9) in a 2.5 L solution.
Adi S.
Calculate the $\mathrm{pH}$ of a solution that is $0.20 \mathrm{M}$ HOCl and $0.90 \mathrm{M}$ KOCI. In order for this buffer to have $\mathrm{pH}=\mathrm{p} K_{\mathrm{a}},$ would you add HCl or NaOH? What quantity (moles) of which reagent would you add to $1.0 \mathrm{L}$ of the original buffer so that the resulting solution has $\mathrm{pH}=\mathrm{p} K_{\mathrm{a}} ?$
