Question: Make 1.00 L of 1.0 M buffer pH 6.2. How much of each component do you need to use? You have NaHmalonate and 10.0 M

Make 1.00 L of 1.0 M buffer pH 6.2. How much of each component do you need to use? You have NaHmalonate and 10.0 M NaOH. The pka of malonate is 5.69 and the MW is 126.1 g/mol.

(NaHmalonate: ..........g, NaOH: ......... mL, H2O: ........mL). 

Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, 

nOH- = nA-

, and to first find nHA 

use the equation 

ntotal = nHA + nA-
