Sodium Formate is the salt of strong base and weak acid. It can formed by reaction with strong base sodium and weak acid Formic acid.

The PH will be =1/2Pkw+1/2Pka+1/2logC

kw is the dissociation constant of water.

ka is the dissociation constant of acid.

C stands for concentration of the salt in aqueous media.

P is denoted for antilog of the constants.

So, for this case,

PH=1/2*14+1/2*3.75+1/2*0.2=8.97

How do you test sodium formate in the laboratory?

Dissolve 0.1 to 0.2 grams of sodium formate in 50 ml of glacial acetic acid first.Heat gently if required.Cool it and titrate it against 0.1 N Perchloric acid using Crystal violet indicator. Colour change - From Blue to Blueish Green. Calculation Sodium Formate % = B. R. ml X Normality of Perchloric acid X 6.8 / Wt of the Sodium formate Abhay Mori email = moriabhay@gmail.com Dissolve 0.1 to 0.2 grams of sodium formate in 50 ml of glacial acetic acid first.Heat gently if required.Cool it and titrate it against 0.1 N Perchloric acid using Crystal violet indicator.
