A buffer is prepared such that [CH3COOH]0 = [CH3COO−]0 = 0.050 M. Calculate the volume of 0.10 M NaOH that can be added to 100.0 mL of the solution before its buffering capcaity is lost. Assume the buffer capacity is lost when the ratio [base]0/[acid]0 is less than 0.1 or greater than 10. Give your answer in mL.
