I checked the answer, but the correct answer was "none of all". Since I am not familar with this question, could you please check if my procedure is correct. I appreciate it!
What volume of HCl is added if 20mL of 1M NaOH is titrated with 1M HCl to produce a pH=2?
(** I think I don't have to use buffer equation pH = pKa + log(..)
**)
I assume x mL 1 M HCl has to add to the solution.
The final pH is 2 ==> it means there is 0.01 mole HCl.
Basically, I make the equation mole of HCl = mole of HCl
(x * 1) - (20 * 1) = 0.01 * (x + 20)
-------- --------- ------ -----------
total mole added mole OH final pH volume of HCl+OH
my final answer is x = 20.4 mL. Is it correct? Thanks for you time.
