« on: November 29, 2009, 01:21:51 PM »
I am having troubl with this problem, can anyone help?

Calculate the pH after .020 mol HCL is added to 1.0 liter of .100 M propanoic acid  (HC3H5O2) Ka 1.3E-5

also calculate the pH after the HCL has been added to a mixture containing .100 M HC3H5O2 and .100 M NaC3H5O2

What equations describe the equilibrium in the first solution?
