A chemistry graduate student is given 125. ml. of a 0.60M benzoic acid (HC,H,CO₂) solution. Benzoic acid is a weak acid with K-6.3x105. What mass of KC,H,CO, should the student dissolve in the HC H,CO, solution to turn it into a buffer with pH 4.557 You may assume that the volume of the solution doesn't change when the KC,H,CO, is dissolved in it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to 2 significant digits. e 0.9 X
