p K a = 6 . 8 6 p H = 7 . 0 0 [ H 2 P O 4 - ] = 0

pKa=6.86
pH=7.00
[H2PO4-]=0.19M
pH=pKa+log([A-][HA])=7.00
7.00=6.86+log([A-]0.19)
0.14=log([A-]0.19)
[A-]=0.26M
Part B
Now assume you wish to make a buffer at the same pH, using the same substances, but want the total phosphate molarity ([HPO42-]+[H2PO4-])to equal 0.39M. What concentration of the KH2PO4 would be required?
