Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 77QAP
Two students were asked to determine the Kb of an unknown base. They were given a bottle with a solution in it. The bottle was labeled "aqueous solution of a monoprotic strong acid." They were also given a pH meter, a buret, and an appropriate indicator. They reported the following data:
volume of acid required for neutralization = 21.0 mL
pH after 7.00 mL of strong acid added = 8.95
Use the students' data to determme the Kb of the unknown base.

- When might a pH meter be better than an indicator to determine the end point of an acid-base titration?arrow_forwardWhat is a salt? List some anions that behave as weak bases in water. List some anions that have no basic properties in water. List some cations that behave as weak acids in water. List some cations that have no acidic properties in water. Using these lists, give some formulas for salts that have only weak base properties in water. What strategy would you use to solve for the pH of these basic salt solutions? Identify some salts that have only weak acid properties in water. What strategy would you use to solve for the pH of these acidic salt solutions? Identify some salts that have no acidic or basic properties in water (produce neutral solutions). When a salt contains both a weak acid ion and a weak base ion, how do you predict whether the solution pH is acidic, basic, or neutral?arrow_forwardCalculate the pH of each of the following solutions. (a) 10.0 mL of 0.300 M hydrofluoric acid plus 30.0 mL of 0.100 M sodium hydroxide (b) 100.0 mL of 0.250 M ammonia plus 50.0 mL of 0.100 M hydrochloric acid (c) 25.0 mL of 0.200 M sulfuric acid plus 50.0 mL of 0.400 M sodium hydroxidearrow_forward

A strong acid is added to the solution. b. A strong base is added to the solution.arrow_forwardComposition diagrams, commonly known as alpha plots, are often used to visualize the species in a solution of an acid or base as the pH is varied. The diagram for 0.100 M acetic acid is shown here. The plot shows how the fraction [alpha ()] of acetic acid in solution, =[CH3CO2H][CH3CO2H]+[CH3CO2] changes as the pH increases (blue curve). (The red curve shows how the fraction of acetate ion, CH3CO2, changes as the pH increases.) Alpha plots are another way of viewing the relative concentrations of acetic acid and acetate ion as a strong base is added to a solution of acetic acid in the course of a titration. (a) Explain why the fraction of acetic acid declines and that of acetate ion increases as the pH increases. (b) Which species predominates at a pH of 4, acetic acid or acetate ion? What is the situation at a pH of 6? (c) Consider the point where the two lines cross. The fraction of acetic acid in the solution is 0.5, and so is that of acetate ion. That is, the solution is half acid and half conjugate base; their concentrations are equal. At this point, the graph shows the pH is 4.74. Explain why the pH at this point is 4 74.arrow_forward
