A 60.0 mL solution of 0.112 M sulfurous acid (H2SO3) is titrated with 0.112 M NaOH. The pKa values of sulfurous acid are 1.857 (

pKa1) and 7.172 (pKa2).
A) Calculate pH at the first equivalence point.
B) Calculate pH at the second equivalence point.

Answer:

a)4.51

b) 9.96

Explanation:

Given:

NaOH = 0.112M

H2S03 = 0.112 M

V = 60 ml

H2S03 pKa1= 1.857

pKa2 = 7.172

a) to calculate pH at first equivalence point, we calculate the pH between pKa1 and pKa2 as it is in between.

Therefore, the half points will also be the middle point.

Solving, we have:

pH = (½)* pKa1 + pKa2

pH = (½) * (1.857 + 7.172)

= 4.51

Thus, pH at first equivalence point is 4.51

b) pH at second equivalence point:

We already know there is a presence of SO3-2, and it ionizes to form

SO3-2 + H2O <>HSO3- + OH-

Kb = \frac{[ HSO3-][0H-]}{SO3-2}

Kb = \frac{10^-^1^4}{10^-^7^.^1^7^2} = 1.49*10^-^7

[HSO3-] = x = [OH-]

mmol of SO3-2 = MV

= 0.112 * 60 = 6.72

We need to find the V of NaOh,

V of NaOh = (2 * mmol)/M

= (2 * 6.72)/0.122

= 120ml

For total V in equivalence point, we have:

60ml + 120ml = 180ml

[S03-2] = 6.72/120

= 0.056 M

Substituting for values gotten in the equation Kb=\frac{[HSO3-][OH-]}{[SO3-2]}

We noe have:

1.485*10^-^7=\frac{x*x}{(0.056-x)}

x = [OH-] = 9.11*10^-^5

pOH = -log(OH) = -log(9.11*10^-^5)

=4.04

pH = 14- pOH

= 14 - 4.04

= 9.96

The pH at second equivalence point is 9.96
