Solutions

Expert Solution

for H2SO3

Ka1 = 1.4×10–2
Ka2 = 6.3×10–8

50.0 mL of 0.100 M H2SO3 is titrated with 0.150 M KOH soluion.

a) What is the initial pH of the sulfurous acid?

H2SO3 ---------------------> H+ + HSO3-

0.1                                       0           0 ----------------> initial

0.1-x                                    x             x ----------------> equilibrium

Ka1 = [H+][HSO3-]/[H2SO3]

Ka1 = x^2 / 0.1-x

1.4 x 10^-2 = x^2 / 0.1-x

x^2 + 1.4 x 10^-2 x - 1.4 x 10^-3 = 0

x = 0.0311

x = [H+] = 0.0311 M

pH = -log [H+] = -log ( 0.0311)

pH = 1.51 -------------------------> initial pH

b) How much titrant is needed to reach the equivalence points? What is the pH at each equivalence point?

H2SO3 + KOH -------------------> KHSO3 + H2O

it is first equivalence point .

here millimoles of acid = millimoles of base

50 x 0.1 = V x 0.150

V = 33.33 mL

at first equivalence point the volume of KOH needed = 33.33 mL

here pH = (pKa1 + pKa2) / 2

pH = (1.85 + 7.20) /2

pH = 4.52 ---------------------> first equivalence pH

second equivaelce point

H2SO3 + 2KOH -----------------> K2SO4 + 2HO

1                2

1 millimoles of H2SO3 = 2 millimoles KOH

5   = 2 x 0.150 x V

16.67 = V

total volume needed = 33.33 + 16.67 mL = 50 mL needed second equivalece point

here    pH = 7.20
