Answer :

Milliliters of 0.500 m NaOH should be added to 10.0 g of tris hydrochloride to give a pH of 7.40 in a final volume of 500 ml is 31.8 mL.

The expression for the pH of buffer solution is given as :

pH = pKa + log ( base / acid)

moles of Tris HCl = mass / molar mass

                             = 10 / 157.59

                             = 0.0635 moles

pH = pKa + log ( base / acid)

7.40 = 8.072 + log ( [A⁻] / [HA] )

[A⁻] / [HA] = 0.335

but  total moles of [A⁻] + [HA]  = 0.0635 mol

therefore , 0.335 = y/ (0.0635 - y)

y = no. of moles of NaOH

mow, y = 0.015

volume of NaOH = moles / molarity

                             = 0.015 / 0.500

                              = 0.0318 L = 31.8 mL

Thus, Milliliters of 0.500 m NaOH should be added to 10.0 g of tris hydrochloride to give a pH of 7.40 in a final volume of 500 ml is 31.8 mL.
