In this problem we will derive the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation from Ka for a weak acid HA. (a) Write the chemical reaction for the dissociation of HA(aq). (b) Write the Ka expression for the reaction written above. (c) Solve the expression for [H*] and take the -log of both sides. Manipulate the expression until you have the H-H equation (pH = p K₁ + log (A). [HA])
