Question: Apply the general method for solution equilibrium calculations to determine the pH values of the following solutions. In applying the method, look for valid assumptions

Apply the general method for solution equilibrium calculations to determine the pH values of the following solutions. In applying the method, look for valid assumptions that may simplify the numerical calculations.

(a) A solution that is 0.315 M CH3COOH and 0.250 M HCOOH;

(b) A solution that contains 1.55 g CH3NH2 and 12.5 g NHin 375 mL;

(c) 1.0 M NH4CN(aq).
