An analytical chemist is titrating of a solution of propionic acid with a solution of 224.9 ml of a 0.6100M solution of propioni

c acid (HC2H5CO2) with a 1.1000M solution of KOH. The pKa of proionic acid 4.89.
Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 41.04mL of the KOH solution to it.

Note for advanced students: you may assume the final volume equals the initial volume of the solution plus the volume of solution added. Round your answer to decimal places.

<u>Answer:</u> The pH of acid solution is 4.58

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}    .....(1)

  • <u>For KOH:</u>

Molarity of KOH solution = 1.1000 M

Volume of solution = 41.04 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

1.1000M=\frac{\text{Moles of KOH}\times 1000}{41.04}\\\\\text{Moles of KOH}=\frac{1.1000\times 41.04}{1000}=0.04514mol

  • <u>For propanoic acid:</u>

Molarity of propanoic acid solution = 0.6100 M

Volume of solution = 224.9 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.6100M=\frac{\text{Moles of propanoic acid}\times 1000}{224.9}\\\\\text{Moles of propanoic acid}=\frac{0.6100\times 224.9}{1000}=0.1372mol

The chemical reaction for propanoic acid and KOH follows the equation:

                 C_2H_5COOH+KOH\rightarrow C_2H_5COOK+H_2O

<u>Initial:</u>          0.1372         0.04514  

<u>Final:</u>           0.09206          -                0.04514

Total volume of solution = [224.9 + 41.04] mL = 265.94 mL = 0.26594 L     (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{salt}]}{[acid]})

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[C_2H_5COOK]}{[C_2H_5COOH]})

We are given:  

pK_a = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of propanoic acid = 4.89

[C_2H_5COOK]=\frac{0.04514}{0.26594}

[C_2H_5COOH]=\frac{0.09206}{0.26594}

pH = ?  

Putting values in above equation, we get:

pH=4.89+\log(\frac{(0.04514/0.26594)}{(0.09206/0.26594)})\\\\pH=4.58

Hence, the pH of acid solution is 4.58

How many moles of H2O form when 4.5 moles O2 reacts?
mart [117]

Explanation:

Start with a balanced equation.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Assuming that H2 is in excess, multiply the given moles H2O by the mole ratio between O2 and H2O in the balanced equation so that moles H2O cancel.

5 mol H2O × (1 mol O2/2 mol H2O) = 2.5 mol O2

Answer: 2.5 mol O2 are needed to make 5 mol H2O, assuming H2 is in excess.
