Chloroform, CHCl3, is formed by the following reaction:

CH4(g) + 3 Cl2(g) → 3 HCl(g) + CHCl3 (g)

Determine the enthalpy change for this reaction (ΔH°rxn), using the following:

enthalpy of formation of CHCl3 (g), ΔH°f = – 103.1 kJ/mol

                                CH4(g) + 2 O2(g) → 2 H2O(l) + CO2(g)        ΔH°rxn = – 890.4 kJ/mol

                                2 HCl (g) → H2 (g) + Cl2(g)                              ΔH°rxn = + 184.6 kJ/mol

                                C (graphite) + O2(g) → CO2(g)                     ΔH°rxn = – 393.5 kJ/mol

                                H2 (g) + ½ O2(g) → H2O(l)                              ΔH°rxn = – 285.8 kJ/mol

+ 145.4 kJ

– 305.3 kJ

– 145.4 kJ

+ 305.3 kJ

– 103.1 kJ

A solution is prepared using a sodium salt of an unknown diprotic base. The unknown diprotic weak base solution will be analyzed for concentration by titration with a strong acid. The unknown is placed in an Erlenmyer flask, and small, measured volumes of a standard strong acid solution are added until the final equivalence point is reached. Then the concentration of the base is calculated fromthe known volumes, the one known concentration and stoichiometry. All solutions are kept at room temperature.

A. Before the titration starts, is the solution in the flask acidic, neutral or alkaline?

B. Write a complete ionic equation for the complete (Bronsted-Lowry) acid-base neutralization reaction of a generic weak diprotic base B^2- with hydrochloric acid.

C. List the most commonform of each solute species that is present in the reaction mixture at the final equivalence point, and label each as a strong acid, weak acid, neutral, weak base, or strong base.

D. At the final equivalence point, will the overall solution be strongly acidic, weakly acidic, neutral, weakly basic, or strongly basic?

E. List the solute species that are present when more standard is added after the final equivalence point, and label each as either a strong acid, weak acid, neutral, weak base or strong base.

F. If extra titrant is added tto the flask after the final equivalence point has been reached, will the mixture be strongly acidic, weakly acidic, neutral, weakly basic, or strongly basic?
