What is the difference in pH for 1/3 and 2/3 stages of neutralisation of 0.1 M CH3COOH with 0.1 M NaOH.

im sorry bout that but...
I couldn't figure out the meaning of the question ,i.e the part '1/3 and 2/3 stages of neutralisation'.
so how could i solve it then.. :-\

1/3rd (2/3rds) of acetic acid has been neutralized.

ic..so in this question do we have to use the formula-
pH= -log[H+]?

No. Hint: you have a solution of a weak acid and its conjugate base.

oh well then ..
pH=pKa + log[acid]/[conjugate base] ?
