Explanation / Answer

This is a base, so better use pKb

pKb = 14-pKa = 14-8.04 = 5.96

b)

mmol of acid = MV =5.85*0.0507 = 0.296595 mmol of acid

mmol of base = MV = 50*0.075 = 3.75 mmol of base

mmol after reaction = 3.75-0.296595 = 3.4534

mmol of conjgute acid formed = 0.296595

this is a basic buffer so

pOH = pKb + log(BH+/B)

pOH = 5.96 + log(0.296595/3.4534 ) = 4.89391

pH = 14-pH = 14-4.89391

pH = 9.10609

then

f)

mmol of acid = MV =78.4*0.0507 = 3.97488 mmol of acid

mmol of base = MV = 50*0.075 = 3.75 mmol of base

there is clearly excess of acid

so

mmol of H+ = 3.97488 - 3.75 = 0.22488 mmol of H+

Vtotal = V1+V2 = 50+78.4 = 128.4

[H+] = mmol/Vtotal = 0.22488 / (128.4) = 0.001751401 M

pH = -log(0.001751401) = 2.75661
