Consider the titration of a 20.0-mL sample of 0.105 M HC2H3O2 with 0.125 M NaOH. Determine each quantity. a. the initial pH b. t

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

Concentration of $HC_2H_3O_2 \ (M_1)$ = 0.105 M

Volume of $HC_2H_3O_2 \ (V_1)$ = 20.0 mL

Concentration of $NaOH (M_2)$ = 0.125 M

The chemical reaction can be expressed as:

$HC_2H_3O_2_{(aq)} + NaOH _{(aq)} \to NaC_2H_3O_2_{(aq)} + H_2O_{(l)}$

Using the ICE Table to determine the equilibrium concentrations.

$HC_2 H_3 O_2 _{(aq)} + H_2O _{(l) } \to C_2 H_3O_2^- _{(aq)} + H_3O^+_{ (aq)}$

I 0.105 0 0

C -x +x +x

E 0.105 - x x x

$K_a = \dfrac{[C_2H_5O^-_2][H_3O^+]}{[HC_2H_3O_2]}$

$K_a = \dfrac{(x)(x)}{(0.105-x)}$

Recall that the ka for $HC_2H_3O_2= 1.8 \times 10^{-5}$

Then;

$1.8 \times 10^{-5} = \dfrac{(x)(x)}{(0.105 -x)}$

$1.8 \times 10^{-5} = \dfrac{x^2}{(0.105 -x)}$

By solving the above mathematical expression;

x = 0.00137 M

$H_3O^+ = x = 0.00137 \ M \\ \\ pH = - log [H_3O^+] \\ \\ pH = - log ( 0.00137 )$

pH = 2.86

Hence, the initial pH = 2.86

b) To determine the volume of the added base needed to reach the equivalence point by using the formula:

$M_1 V_1 = M_2 V_2$

$V_2= \dfrac{M_1V_1}{M_2}$

$V_2= \dfrac{0.105 \ M \times 20.0 \ mL }{0.125 \ M}$

$V_2 = 16.8 mL$

Thus, the volume of the added base needed to reach the equivalence point = 16.8 mL

c) when pH of 5.0 mL of the base is added.

The Initial moles of $HC_2H_3O_2 =$ molarity × volume

$= 0.105 \ M \times 20.0 \times 10^{-3} \ L$

$= 2.1 \times 10^{-3}$

number of moles of 5.0 NaOH = molarity × volume

number of moles of 5.0 NaOH = $0.625 \times 10^{-3}$

After reacting with 5.0 mL NaOH, the number of moles is as follows:

$HC_2 H_3 O_2 _{(aq)} + NaOH _{(aq)} \to NaC_2H_3O_2_{(aq)} + H_2O{ (l)}$

Initial moles $2.1*10^{-3}$ $0.625 * 10^{-3}$ 0 0

F(moles) $(2.1*10^{-3} - 0.625 \times 10^{-3})$ 0 $0.625 \times 10^{-3}$ $0.625 \times 10^{-3}$

The pH of the solution is then calculated as follows:

$pH = pKa + log \dfrac{[base]} {[acid]}$

Recall that:

pKa for $HC_2H_3O_2=4.74$

Then; we replace the concentration with the number of moles since the volume of acid and base are equal

∴

$pH = 4.74 + log \dfrac{0.625 \times 10^{-3}}{1.475 \times 10^{-3}}$

pH = 4.37

Thus, the pH of the solution after the addition of 5.0 mL of NaOH = 4.37

We need to understand that the pH at 1/2 of the equivalence point is equal to the concentration of the base and the acid.

Therefore;

pH = pKa = 4.74

e) pH at the equivalence point.

Here, the pH of the solution is the result of the reaction in the $(C_2H_3O^-_2)$ with $H_2O$

The total volume(V) of the solution = V(acid) + V(of the base added to reach equivalence point)

The total volume(V) of the solution = 20.0 mL + 16.8 mL

The total volume(V) of the solution = 36.8 mL

Concentration of $(C_2H_3O^-_2)$ = moles/volume

= $\dfrac{2.1 \times 10^{-3} \ moles}{0.0368 \ L}$

= 0.0571 M

Now, using the ICE table to determine the concentration of $H_3O^+$ ;

$C_2H_5O^-_2 _{(aq)} + H_2O_{(l)} \to HC_2H_3O_2_{(aq)} + OH^-_{(aq)}$

I 0.0571 0 0

C -x +x +x

E 0.0571 - x x x

Recall that the Ka for $HC_2H_3O_2$ = $1.8 \times 10^{-5}$

$K_b = \dfrac{K_w}{K_a} = \dfrac{1.0\times 10^{-14}}{1.8 \times 10^{-5} } \\ \\ K_b = 5.6 \times 10^{-10}$

$k_b = \dfrac{[ HC_2H_3O_2] [OH^-]}{[C_2H_3O^-_2]}$

$5.6 \times 10^{-10} = \dfrac{x *x }{0.0571 -x}$

$x = [OH^-] = 5.6 \times 10^{-6} \ M$

$[H_3O^+] = \dfrac{1.0 \times 10^{-14} }{5.6 \times 10^{-6} }$

$[H_3O^+] =1.77 \times 10^{-9}$

$pH =-log [H_3O^+] \\ \\ pH =-log (1.77 \times 10^{-9}) \\ \\ \mathbf{pH = 8.75 }$

Hence, the pH of the solution at equivalence point = 8.75

f) The pH after 5.09 mL base is added beyond (E) point.

$HC_2 H_3 O_2 _{(aq)} + NaOH _{(aq)} \to NaC_2H_3O_2_{(aq)} + H_2O{ (l)}$

Before 0.0021 0.002725 0

After 0 0.000625 0.0021

$[OH^-] = \dfrac{0.000625 \ moles}{(0.02 + 0.0218 ) \ L}$

$[OH^-] = \dfrac{0.000625 \ moles}{0.0418 \ L}$

$[OH^-] = 0.0149 \ M$

From above; we can determine the concentration of $H_3O^+$ by using the following method:

$[H_3O^+] = \dfrac{1.0 \times 10^{-14} }{0.0149}$

$[H_3O^+] = 6.7 \times 10^{-13}$

$pH = - log [H_3O^+]$

$pH = -log (6.7 \times 10^{-13} )$

pH = 12.17

Finally, the pH of the solution after adding 5.0 mL of NaOH beyond (E) point = 12.17

(a) What is the basis of the approximation that avoids using the quadratic formula to find an equilibrium concentration?

rusak2 [61]

The approximation is valid because is very small.

Calculation of concentration:

Since

0.85 M 0 0

(0.85-x)M x x

Now the value of x should be

x = 0.0000229

So based on this, the above concentration should be determined.

Now you will solve using the quadratic formula instead of iterations, to show that the same value of x is obtained either way. using the quadratic equation to calculate [h3o+] in 0.00250 m hno2, what are the values of a, b, c and x , where a, b, and c are the coefficients in the quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0, and x is [h3o+]? recall that ka=4.5×10−4 .

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

[H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M

As HNO₂ is a weak acid, its equilibrium in water is:

HNO₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq)

Equilibrium constant, ka, is defined as:

ka = 4.5x10⁻⁴ = [H₃O⁺] [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂] (1)

Equilibrium concentration of each specie are:

[HNO₂] = 0.00250M - x

[H₃O⁺] = x

[NO₂⁻] = x

Replacing in (1):

4.5x10⁻⁴ = x × x / 0.00250M - x

1.125x10⁻⁶ - 4.5x10⁻⁴x = x²

0 = x² + 4.5x10⁻⁴x - 1.125x10⁻⁶

As the quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0

Coefficients are:

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

Now, solving quadratic equation:

x = -0.0013 → False answer, there is no negative concentrations.

x = 0.000859

As [H₃O⁺] = x; [H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M
