Equilibrium · pH of weak acid and buffer

At 25∘^\circC, 20.0 mL of 0.2 M weak monoprotic acid HX is titrated against 0.2 M NaOH. The pH of the solution (a) at the start of the titration (when NaOH has not been added) and (b) when 10 mL of NaOH is added respectively, are :

Given : Ka=5×10−4K_\mathrm{a} = 5\times10^{-4}, pKa=3.3K_\mathrm{a} = 3.3, α≪1\alpha \ll 1

  1. (1)0.7, 2.0
  2. (2)2.0, 3.3
  3. (3)1.1, 2.2
  4. (4)3.0, 2.2
