A base generally releases a hydroxide ion (OH-) when dissolved in water.
There are exceptions, such as ammonia NH3, which acts as a base but does not produce OH- ions. There are three definitions of acids and bases (Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis) and each one looks at acid/base characteristics differently. OH- donation is the Arrhenius definition.
Answer:
a) Kb = 10^-9
b) pH = 3.02
Explanation:
a) pH 5.0 titration with a 100 mL sample containing 500 mL of 0.10 M HCl, or 0.05 moles of HCl. Therefore we have the following:
[NaA] and [A-] = 0.05/0.6 = 0.083 M
Kb = Kw/Ka = 10^-14/[H+] = 10^-14/10^-5 = 10^-9
b) For the stoichiometric point in the titration, 0.100 moles of NaA have to be found in a 1.1L solution, and this is equal to:
[A-] = [H+] = (0.1 L)*(1 M)/1.1 L = 0.091 M
pKb = 10^-9
Ka = 10^-5
HA = H+ + A-
Ka = 10^-5 = ([H+]*[A-])/[HA] = [H+]^2/(0.091 - [H+])
[H+]^2 + 10^5 * [H+] - 10^-5 * 0.091 = 0
Clearing [H+]:
[H+] = 0.00095 M
pH = -log([H+]) = -log(0.00095) = 3.02
