these solutions (2-5) will each be in their own 50mL volumetric flask.
assigned pH for buffer system: 4.75
acid/base pair to use: acetic acid and sodium acetate
| concentration of acetic acid | amount of acid to add | concentration of sodium acetate | amount of base to add |

Sample calculation for acid (solution 2-5):
Sample calculation for base (solution 2-5):
You will prepare 4 different 50 mL solutions from the tableabove. Once you have the calculated amount of acid (g or mL) andbase (g or mL) in the correct flask, what should you do tofinish preparing each solution? Describe the steps youwill take to make this solution.
Finally, transfer each solution to a container for storage.
