40.0 mL of 0.10 M HA(aq) was titrated against 0.10 M NaOH(aq). HA (aq) is a weak acid with Kaof 6.3 x 10^-6.

            (a)        Calculate the initial pH of the 0.10 M HA (i.e. before adding NaOH).

            (b)        Calculate the pH at the equivalence point.

Expert Solution

(a)        Calculate the initial pH of the 0.10 M HA (i.e. before adding NaOH).

6.3 x 10-6

HA(aq) H+(aq) + A-(aq)

From ICE table we get

Ka = x2/0.1-x    (x in denominator can be ignored)

6.3 x 10-6 = x2/0.1

x = 7.93 x 10-4 This is the H+ concentration

pH = -log H+

pH = 3.1

Since we will need 1:1 HA and NaOH to reach equivalnec point we will need 40mL of 0.1M NaOH

at the equivalence point all HA has been converetd to A-. So A- concentration would be 0.04 x 0.1 = 0.004 moles in 80 mL which is 0.05 M. A- in water displays the following equilibrium

                      A-(aq) + H2O HA + OH-(aq)

initial                0.05                  0        0

change              -x                    +x       +x

equilibrium        0.05-x               x          x

Kb = Kw/Ka

Kb = 1 x 10-14/6.3 x 10-6 = 1.58 x 10-9

Kb = x2/0.05-x

1.58 x 10-9 = x2/0.05-x

7.9 x 10-11 - 1.58 x 10-9 x= x2

x2 + 1.58 x 10-9 x - 7.9 x 10-11 =0 solving this quadratic equation we get

x = 8.88 x 10-6 This is OH- concentration

pOH = - log OH-

pOH = -log 8.88 x 10-6

pOH = 5.05

pH = 14-pOH

pH = 14-5.05

pH = 8.95
