How much of this do you know how to do? Have you calculated the ionic strength of the solution? Have you calculated the activity coefficient(s)?
My biggest problem is knowing where to start. So I calculate the ionic strength then the activity coefficients. Then do I just "plug and chug"
Yes, more or less. You calculate u (ionic strength) first and use that to calculate activity coefficient. Using activity coefficient correct the Ka for butanoic acid, then plug and chug.
Thank you!
