millimols HF = mL x M = 500 mL x 0.43M = 215
mmols F^- = 500 mL x 0.45M = 225
40 mL x 0.1M NaOH = 4 millimols.
...........HF + OH^- ==> F^- H2O

Substitute the equil line from the ICE chart into the HH equation and solve for pH.
A hydrofluoric acid buffer solution has the following concentrations:
[HF]=0.43M
[F-]=0.45M
If 40 mL of 0.1M NaOH is added to 500 mL of the buffer, what is the resultant pH?
