A beaker with 1.60x10^2mL of an acetic acid buffer with a pH of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop. The total molarity of an acid and conjugate base in this buffer is 0.100M. A student adds 6.80mL of 0.490M HCI solution to the beaker. How much will the pH change? The pka of acetic acid is 4.740. Express your answer numerically to two decimal places. Use a minus sign if the pH has decreased.

A beaker with 1.60x10^2mL of an acetic acid buffer with a pH of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop. The total molarity of an
acid and conjugate base in this buffer is 0.100M. A student adds 6.80mL of 0.490M HCI solution to the beaker. How
much will the pH change? The pKa of acetic acid is 4.740. Express your answer numerically to two decimal places. Use a
minus sign if the pH has decreased.
