What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 15.00 mL of 0.10 M acetic acid with 15.00 mL of 0.10 M KOH? Assume that the volumes
Lisa [10]

Answer:

pH = 8.72

Explanation:

This is like a titration of a weak acid and a strong base, in this case, we are at the equivalence point plus we have the same mmoles of acid and base. We have completely neutralized the acid.

CH₃COOH      +     OH⁻        ⇄    CH₃COO⁻   +   H₂O

0.1M . 15 mL      0.1M . 15 mL

We only have (0.1M . 15 mL) mmoles of acetate ion. → 1.5 mmoles

As this compound acts like a base, we propose this equilibrium:

CH₃COO⁻   +  H₂O  ⇄  CH₃COOH      +     OH⁻   Kb

We need to work with Kb and we know, that Kw = Ka. Kb so, Kb = Kw/Ka

Kb = 1×10⁻¹⁴ /1×10 ⁻⁵ = 5.55×10⁻¹⁰

Concentration of CH₃COO⁻ → 1.5 mmol / 30mL (volumes of the solutions are additive) = 0.05M

So: [CH₃COOH] . [OH⁻] / [CH₃COO⁻] = Kb

x²/ 0.05-x = 5.55×10⁻¹⁰

We can avoid the quadractic equation because Kb is so small

[OH⁻] = √(5.55×10⁻¹⁰ . 0.05) = 5.27×10⁻⁶

pOH = - log [OH⁻]  → 5.28

pH = 14 - pOH = 8.72
