$Concentration$ $"Concentration"$ $=$ $=$ $\frac{Moles of solute}{Volume of solution}$ $"Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution"$

$Concentration$ $"Concentration"$ $=$ $=$ $(112*cancelg)/(82.03*cancelg*mol^-1)xx1/(1.65*L)$ $=$ $0.828*mol*L^-1" with respect to sodium acetate"$ .

We have assumed (reasonably) that volume would remain constant after dissolution.

Would the $pH$ of this solution be greater or less than $7$ ; why?
