If 21.00 mL of a 0.68 M solution of C6H5NH2 required 6.60 mL of the strong acid to completely neutralize the solution, what was

Andru [333]

Answer:

pH = 2.46

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since this neutralization reaction may be assumed to occur in a 1:1 mole ratio between the base and the strong acid, it is possible to write the following moles and volume-concentrations relationship for the equivalence point:

$n_{acid}=n_{base}=n_{salt}$

Whereas the moles of the salt are computed as shown below:

$n_{salt}=0.021L*0.68mol/L=0.01428mol$

So we can divide those moles by the total volume (0.021L+0.0066L=0.0276L) to obtain the concentration of the final salt:

$[salt]=0.01428mol/0.0276L=0.517M$

Now, we need to keep in mind that this is an acidic salt since the base is weak and the acid strong, so the determinant ionization is:

$C_6H_5NH_3^++H_2O\rightleftharpoons C_6H_5NH_2+H_3O^+$

Whose equilibrium expression is:

$Ka=\frac{[C_6H_5NH_2][H_3O^+]}{C_6H_5NH_3^+}$

Now, since the Kb of C6H5NH2 is 4.3 x 10^-10, its Ka is 2.326x10^-5 (Kw/Kb), we can also write:

$2.326x10^{-5}=\frac{x^2}{0.517M}$

Whereas x is:

$x=\sqrt{0.517*2.326x10^{-5}}\\\\x=3.47x10^-3$

Which also equals the concentration of hydrogen ions; therefore, the pH at the equivalence point is:

$pH=-log(3.47x10^{-3})\\\\pH=2.46$

Regards!

List 6 uses of acids

devlian [24]

Answer: 1. Vinegar, used in the kitchen, is a liquid containing 3-6% acetic acid. It is used in pickles and in many food preparations.

2. Lemon and orange juice contains citric acid. Citric acid is used in the preparation of effervescent salts and as a food preservative.

3. Acids have been put to many uses in industry. Nitric acid and sulphuric acid are used in the manufacture of fertilizers, dyes, paints, drugs and explosives.

4. Sulphuric acid is used in batteries, which are used in cars, etc. Tannic acid is used in the manufacture of ink and leather.

5. Hydrochloric acid is used to make aqua regia, which is used to dissolve noble metals such as gold and platinum.

6. Sulphuric acid is used in manufacturing fertilizers such as super phosphate, ammonium sulpahte etc.
