Consider the titration of 50.0 mL of 0.5 M weak acid analyte HF (Ka = 6.6 x 10-4) with 1.0 M titrant NaOH. A. (5 pts) What is the volume of base added at the stoichiometric (equivalence) point?
[H+] ion concentration of weak acid = (Ka*C)^1/2
= (6.6*10^-4 *0.5)^1/2
= 1.82*10^-2
Now we have to use M1V1 = M2V2
M1 = 1.82*10^-2 , V1 = 50 ml , M2 = 1.0 M , V2 = ?
1.82*10^-2*50.0 = 1.0*V2
V2 = 0.91 ml
volume of base added is 0.91 ml
