Calculate the pH of a titration with 25 mL of 0.1 M NH3 with 0.1 MHCl at the following volume points: 0, 10, 24.9, 25, 25.1, 40,50 mL
no of moles of NH3 = molarity * volume in L
= 0.1*0.025 = 0.0025 moles
NH3 + H2O -------> NH4+ + OH-
I 0.0025 0 0
C -x +x +x
E 0.0025-x +x +x
Kb = [NH4+][OH-]/[NH3]
1.8*10-5 = x*x/(0.0025-x)
1.8*10-5 *(0.0025-x) = x2
x = 0.000203
[OH-] = x = 0.000203M
POH = -log[OH-]
= -log0.000203 = 3.6925
no of moles of HCl = molarity * volume in L
= 0.1* 0.01 = 0.001 moles
NH3 + HCl ---------> NH4Cl
I 0.0025 0.001 0
C -0.001 -0.001 0.001
E 0.0015 0 0.001
POH = PKb + log[NH4Cl]/[NH3]
= 4.75 + log0.001/0.0015
= 4.75-0.176 = 4.574
PH = 14-POH
= 14-4.574 = 9.426
no of moles of HCl = 0.1*0.0249 = 0.00249moles
NH3 + HCl ---------> NH4Cl
I 0.0025 0.00249 0
C -0.00249 -0.00249 0.00249
E 0.00001 0 0.00249
POH = PKb + log[NH4Cl]/[NH3]
= 4.75 + log0.00249/0.00001
= 4.75+2.3961 = 7.1461
PH = 14-POH
= 14-7.1461 = 6.8539
at 25ml
NH4+ = 0.0025 moles
NH4+ + H2O ---------> NH3 + H3O+
I 0.0025 0 0
C -x +x +x
E 0.0025-x +x +x
ka = [NH3][H3O+]/[NH4+]
5.6*10-10 = x*x/0.0025-x
5.6*10-10 *(0.0025-x) = x2
x = 1.2*10-6
[H3O+] = x = 1.2*10-6 M
PH = -log[H3O+]
= -log1.2*10-6
= 5.92
at 25.1 ml
[H3O+] = no of moles of HCl - no of moles of NH3/total volume
= 0.00251-0.0025/50.1 = 0.00001/50.1 = 2*10-7 M
PH = -log2*10-7
= 6.6989
