A buffer solution contains 0.306 M C6H5NH3Br and 0.418 M C6H5NH2 (aniline). Determine the pH change when 0.124 mol HCl is added

Ulleksa [173]

Answer: The pH change of the buffer is 0.30

Explanation:

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

$pOH=pK_b+\log(\frac{[\text{conjugate acid}]}{[\text{base}]})$

$pOH=pK_b+\log(\frac{[C_6H_5NH_3^+]}{[C_6H_5NH_2]})$ .....(1)

We are given:

$pK_b$ = negative logarithm of base dissociation constant of aniline = 9.13

$[C_6H_5NH_3^+]=0.306M$

$[C_6H_5NH_2]=0.418M$

pOH = ?

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$pOH=9.13+\log(\frac{0.306}{0.418})\\\\pOH=8.99$

To calculate pH of the solution, we use the equation:

$pH+pOH=14\\pH_{initial}=14-8.99=5.01$

To calculate the molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Moles hydrochloric acid solution = 0.124 mol

Volume of solution = 1 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molarity of HCl}=\frac{0.124}{1L}\\\\\text{Molarity of HCl}=0.124M$

The chemical reaction for aniline and HCl follows the equation:

$C_6H_5NH_2+HCl\rightarrow C_6H_5NH_3^++Cl^-$

Initial: 0.418 0.124 0.306

Final: 0.294 - 0.430

Calculating the pOH by using using equation 1:

$pK_b$ = negative logarithm of base dissociation constant of aniline = 9.13

$[C_6H_5NH_3^+]=0.430M$

$[C_6H_5NH_2]=0.294M$

pOH = ?

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$pOH=9.13+\log(\frac{0.430}{0.294})\\\\pOH=9.29$

To calculate pH of the solution, we use the equation:

$pH+pOH=14\\pH_{final}=14-9.29=4.71$

Calculating the pH change of the solution:

$\Delta pH=pH_{initial}-pH_{final}\\\\\Delta pH=5.01-4.71=0.30$

Hence, the pH change of the buffer is 0.30
