Each symbol in the box below represents a mole of a component in one liter of a buffer solution; represents the anion (X-), = the weak acid (HX), = H+, and =OH. Water molecules and the few H+ and OH- ions from the dissociation of HX and X- are not shown. The box contains 10 mol of a weak acid, , in a liter of solution. Show what happens upon (a) the addition of 2 mol of OH- (2 ). (b) the addition of 5 mol of OH- (5 ). (c) the addition of 10 mol of OH- (10 ). (d) the addition of 12 mol of OH- (12 ). Which addition (a)-(d) represents neutralization halfway to the equivalence point?
A diprotic acid, H2B(MM=126g/moL), is determined to be a hydrate, H2B xH2O. A 10.00-g sample of this hydrate is dissolved in enough water to make 150.0 mL of solution. Twenty-five milliliters of this solution requires 48.5 mL of 0.425 M NaOH to reach the equivalence point. What is x?
What is the pH of a buffer that is 0.175 M in a weak acid and 0.200 M in the acids conjugate base? The acids ionization constant is 5.7 104.
Sketch the titration curve for a weak acid titrated by a strong base. When performing calculations concerning weak acidstrong base titrations, the general two-slep procedure is to solve a stoichiometry problem first, then to solve an equilibrium problem to determine the pH. What reaction takes place in the stoichiometry part of the problem? What is assumed about this reaction? At the various points in your titration curve, list the major species present after the strong base (NaOH, for example) reacts to completion with the weak acid, HA. What equilibrium problem would you solve at the various points in your titration curve to calculate the pH? Why is pH 7.0 at the equivalence point of a weak acid-strong base titration? Does the pH at the halfway point to equivalence have to be less than 7.0? What does the pH at the halfway point equal? Compare and contrast the titration curves for a strong acidstrong base titration and a weak acidstrong base titration.
Enough water is added to the buffer in Question 30 to make the total volume 5.00 L. (a) Calculate the pH of the buffer. (b) Calculate the pH of the buffer after adding 0.0250 mol of HCl to 0.376 L of the buffer. (c) Calculate the pH of the buffer after adding 0.0250 mol of KOH to 0.376 L of the buffer. (d) Compare your answers to Question 30 (a-c) with your answers to (a-c) of this problem. (e) Comment on the effect of dilution on the pH of a buffer and on its buffer capacity. Â
What is an acidbase indicator? Define the equivalence (stoichiometric) point and the end point of a titration. Why should you choose an indicator so that the two points coincide? Do the pH values of the two points have to be within 0.01 pH unit of each other? Explain.
What mass of NH4Cl must be added to 0.750 L of a 0.100-M solution of NH3 to give a buffer solution with a pH of 9.26? (Him: Assume a negligible change in volume as the solid is added.)
When a diprotic acid. H2A. is titrated with NaOH, the protons on the diprotic acid are generally removed one at a time, resulting in a pH curve that has the following generic shape: a. Notice that the plot has essentially two titration curves. If the first equivalence point occurs at 100.0 mL NaOH added, what volume of NaOH added corresponds to the second equivalence point? b. For the following volumes of NaOH added, list the major species present after the OH reacts completely. i. 0 mL NaOH added ii. between 0 and 100.0 mL NaOH added iii. 100.0 mL NaOH added iv. between 100.0 and 200.0 mL NaOH added v. 200.0 mL NaOH added vi. after 200.0 mL NaOH added c. If die pH at 50.0 mL NaOH added is 4.0 and the pH at 150.0 mL NaOH added is 8.0, determine the values Ka and Ka. for the diprotic acid. d.
