Constant boiling HCl has a concentration of 11.6 M. Your laboratory assistant is going to dilute this acid for you to create a stock solution of HCl for you to use in this experiment. What volume of the 11.6 M HCl must the assistant add to one liter volumetric flask so that the concentration of the stock solution will be 0.62 M after dilution to the mark the water?

What is the pH of this stock solution?

You will now use this 0.62 M HCl solution to carry out a series of dilutions, measuring the pH of each diluted sample. Calculate the [Cl-] and [H+] concentrations and the pH of each sample.

Sample A will be produced bby pipetting 1.00 mL of the stock solution into a 25 mL volumetric, and diluting to the volume with distilled water.

At 25 C, you conduct a titration of 15.00 mL of a 0.0400 M AgNO3 solution with a 0.0200 M NaI solution within the following cell:

Saturated Calomel Electrode || Titration Solution | Ag (s)

For the cell as written, what is the voltage after the addition of the following volume of NaI solution? The reduction potential for the saturated calomel electrode is E = 0.241 V. The standard reduction potential for the reaction

Ag+ + e- --> Ag(s)

is E0 = 0.79993 V. The solubility constant of AgI is Ksp = 8.3 x 10^-17.

.600 mL = ______ V

1. You add Hydrochloric Acid to distilled water. If all the HCl dissociates in solution, calculate the pH of the final solution given the following data. (assume the liquid volumes are addative)
Volume of distilled water used 27.81 mL
Volume of HCl added 1.44 mL
Concentration of added HCl 1.848 M

pH of diluted HCl solution ___________________

2. You weigh a sample of a monoprotic unknown acid and dissolve it in 50.00 mL of distilled water. Exactly half of this solution is titrated with Sodium Hydroxide to the phenolphthalein end point.
The pH of the other half of the original solution is measured with a pH meter. The "neutralized" solution is added to the "original" solution and the pH of this combined "final" solution is also measured.
The following are the measured values:
Mass of unknown acid 1.8105 g
Volume of NaOH used in titration 13.80 mL
Concentration of the NaOH used 0.2213 M
pH of the original acid solution 2.13
pH of the final acid solution 3.24

      CALCULATE the following
(a) Molecular Weight of Acid used in titration ___________________

(b) Molarity of UNKNOWN Acid solution from titration ___________________

(c) Ka of UNKNOWN Acid ___________________

(d) Concentration of undissociated Acid from pH measurements ___________________

(e) Total concentration of UNKNOWN acid from pH measurements ___________________

200.00mL of 2.00 M solution of a weak acid is mixed with 300.00 mL of a 2.00 M solution containing its conjugate base. 50.000 g of the slightly soluble salt silver acetate (AgC2H3O2) is added to this buffer solution. After thorough mixing, the solution is assumed to be saturated. To determine the amount of the solid which remains undissolved, the solution is filtered, and the residue is collected and dried; the mass of the undissolved solid is 30.369 g.

a)Based on this information, Calculate Ksp' for silver acetate in this buffer. (*Note Ksp PRIME is needed, not just regular Ksp)

b)Using your value for Ksp', determine the pH of the buffer solution.

c)Based on the pH of the buffer solution, identify the weak acid used to produce it.
