Buffer consists of 0.50 M NaH2PO4 and 0.40 M Na2HPO4. Phosphoric acid is a triprotic acid (K a 1 = 7.2 × 10 − 3, K a 2 = 6.3 × 10 − 8, and K a 3 = 4.2 × 10 − 13). (a) Which Ka value is most important to this buffer? (b) What is the buffer pH?

The Ka value used for the buffer system is :- Ka2 = pKa2 = 7.2

pH = 7.1

Explanation:

The buffer system given in the question is :-

and

The reaction taking place is:-

The Ka value used for the buffer system is :- Ka2 = pKa2 = 7.2

The pH can be calculated as:-

pH = 7.2 + log 0.40/0.50 = 7.1

the movie was based there, and all the animals and characters are native.
