Hello All
I am trying to create 2 formulas in excel
First formula, to use the concentration of Triprotic acid (H3PO4) to determine the pH (Using the ka1, ka2, ka3 and the concentration)
Example for H3PO4 with a concentration 0.0010035, Wolfram Alpha, says it has a pH of 3.05 but it is missing the 3rd decimal point. https://www.wolframalpha.com/widget/...=pH+Calculator
While Sensorex says it has a pH of 3.03 again missing the third decimal point. https://sensorex.com/ph-calculator/
I need it accurate it to a pH of +/- .005 for the calculations that I am doing
Second formula to do the reverse, to be able to use the pH of Triprotic acid (H3PO4) to determine the concentration (Using the ka1, ka2, ka3 and the pH.)
I know that for H3PO4, it has a
ka1 of =7.1*10^-3 Equates to a pH of =-LOG(7.1*10^-3) 2.148741651
ka2 of =6.3*10^-8 Equates to a pH of =-LOG(6.3*10^-8) 7.200659451
ka3 of =4.5*10^-13 Equates to a pH of =-LOG(4.5*10^-13) 12.34678749
Lets say that the pH of the solution is 3.05
I have tried to do this without using the pka values and got a variation of up to .12 which is way to great. I have NO Clue how to do with the pka values.
Please help Thank you
Brad
