A 25.0 ml sample of 0.150 M HNO2 is titrated with a 0.150 M NaOH solution. What is the pH at the equivalence point? The Ka of HNO2 is 4.50x10-4
What I can't get is the fact I don't know how much has already been titrated at the equivalence point. So it's difficult to know the total volume to find the new concentration.
The answer is supposed to be pH = 8.11, and I could guess that with the titration of a weak acid with a strong base that the pH will rise a bit. But I can't presume how to do this mathematically.
