Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (or THAM) is a weak base frequently used to prepare buffers in biochemistry. Its pKb is 5.92. The corresponding pKa is 8.08 near the pH of physiological buffers, thus it exhibits good buffering capacity at physiological pH. What is the mass of THAM must be taken with 100mL of 0.50M HCl to prepare 1 L of a pH 7.40 buffer ?

A compound 'A' is used in fire extingushion, as an ant acid and its small amount is also used in making bakery items.Identify the compound and explain the reason for above mentioned uses of compound 'A'
A 0.1645-g sample of an unknown monoprotic acid was dissolved in 16.7 mL of water and titrated with 0.0657 M NaOH solution. The volume of base required to bring the solution to the equivalence point was 18.9 mL.
After 10.1 mL of base had been added during the titration, the pH was determined to be 5.28. What is the Ka of the unknown acid? Molar mass of acid is 133 g/mol.
