Detailed Solution

In the solution of  Q.100, CH3COOH=CH3COONa=0.01M

nCH3COOH=nCH3COONa=(0.01M)0.1dm3=0.001mol

On adding 0.002l, mol HCl,the entire CH3COONa is replaced by CH3COOH. Thus, solution contains 0.002 mol acetic acid and 0.001mol HCl. The solution concentrations are

CH3COOH=0.02M and [HCl]=0.01M

The major source of H+ in the solution will be HCl.

Hence, pH=log(0.01)=2
