Problem

A solution is prepared by mixing 50.0 mL of 0.10 M sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PO4NaH_2PO_4) with 25.0 mL of 0.20 M disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2HPO4Na_2HPO_4). The second dissociation constant of phosphoric acid corresponds to pKa2=7.20pK_a2 = 7.20 at 25 °C. Assuming volumes are additive, what is the pH of the final solution? (a) 6.906.90 (b) 7.077.07 (c) 7.207.20 (d) 7.607.60
