Question

When 100 ml of 0.4 M CH3COOH are mixed with 100 ml of 0.2 M NaOH, the [H3O+] in the solution is
approximately : [Ka(CH3COOH) = 1.8 × 10-5]

Options

A.1.8 × 10-6 M
B.1.8 ×10-5 M
C.9 × 10-6 M
D.9 × 10-5 M.

Solution

        CH3COOH   +     NaOH  → CH3COONa    +    H2O
time t = 0    40 mmole        20 mmole         
time t = t     20 mmole         -               20 mmole
pH = pKa+ log   ⇒  pH = pKa  ⇒  [H+] = Ka = 1.8 × 10-5 M
