Ok, I had to calculate this today at work and thought it might make a good little question. It has been so long since I have done any serious pH calculations I am ashamed it took me longer then it should have

.

What is the final pH if you add 0.25μL of 1M Perchloric Acid to 0.75μL of a solution buffered to pH 7.4 with "50 mM Potassium Phosphate" buffer?

Hint
Stronger acid replaces the weaker

That, plus stoichiometry and Henderson-Hasselbalch.

This is an excess of HClO₄!

Yes, overlooked that.

Still, that will be obvious after stoichiometry step.
