The electronic meters used to measure pH are calibrated using standard buffer solutions of known pH. For example, the directions for preparing a certain buffer at 25°C are as follows. Dissolve 3.40 grams of KH2PO4(s) and 3.55 grams of Na2HPO4(s) in sufficient water to make 1.00 L of solution. What pH do you calculate for this buffer solution?
