2.5 grams of a metallic sample containing an unknown amount of zinc is dissolved in 500 ml of acidic water, releasing the zinc into the water as Zn2+ ions. A 10.00 ml aliquot of this solution is extracted with 10 ml of CCl4 containing an excess of 8-hydroxy quinoline. The CCl4 and aqueous phases separate and 8-hydroxy quinoline forms a fluorescent complex with Zn2+ ions that partitions entirely into the CCl4 phase. The CCl4 phase is separated and then diluted to 25 ml. This solution gives a fluorescence intensity of 155 (arbitrary units). A similar procedure is done with 10.00 ml of the unknown zinc solution plus 8.00 ml of an aqueous 2.50 ppm Zn2+ solution, and the final fluorescence intensity is 247. Calculate the Zn2+ concentration in the original 500 ml solution and the amount of zinc in the original solid.

What am I doing wrong in this titration problem?
Calculate the ph at the equivalence point for the following titration 0.20M HCl versus 0.20M methylamine (CH3NH2). The Ka of methylammonium is 2.3x10^-11.
First I have to divide .20M methylamine by 2 (Why?) to get .10M
Then, I set up the equilibrium:
(2.3 x 10^-11) = x^2 / .10M
Since the ka is SO small, I just multiplied .10 with (2.3 x 10^-11) to get 2.3x10^-12, which is wrong.
Why is this wrong? Since the Ka is small, the approxiamation method should work and I won't need to do the quadratic. Instead, I am told that the x value is 1.5x10^-6 from the quadratic.
