A chemist titrates 190.0 mL of a 0.8125 M ammonia (NH) solution with 0.3733 M HCl solution at 25 °C. Calculate the pH at equival

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Approximately $4.92$ .

Explanation:

Initial volume of the solution: $V = 190.0\; \rm mL = 0.1900\; \rm L$ .

Initial quantity of $\rm NH_3$ :

$\begin{aligned} n({\rm NH_3}) &= c({\rm NH_3}) \cdot V({\rm NH_3}) \\ &= 0.3733\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} \times 0.1900\; \rm L \\ &\approx 0.154375\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

Ammonia $\rm NH_3$ reacts with hydrochloric $\rm HCl$ acid at a one-to-one ratio:

$\rm NH_3 + HCl \to NH_4 Cl$ .

Hence, approximately $n({\rm HCl}) = 0.154375\; \rm mol$ of $\rm HCl\!$ molecules would be required to exactly react with the $\rm NH_3\!$ in the original solution and hence reach the equivalence point of this titration.

Calculate the volume of that $0.3733\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ $\rm HCl$ solution required for reaching the equivalence point of this titration:

$\begin{aligned}V({\rm HCl}) &= \frac{n({\rm HCl})}{c({\rm HCl})} \\ &\approx \frac{0.154375\; \rm mol}{0.3733\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}} \approx 0.413541\; \rm L\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, by the assumption stated in the question, the volume of the solution at the equivalence point would be approximately $0.413541\; \rm L + 0.1900\; \rm L \approx 0.6035\; \rm L$ .

If no hydrolysis took place, $0.154375\; \rm mol$ of $\rm NH_4 Cl$ would be produced. Because $\rm NH_4 Cl\!$ is a soluble salt, the solution would contain $0.154375\; \rm mol\!$ of $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ ions. The concentration of $\rm {NH_4}^{+}\!$ would be approximately:

$\begin{aligned}c({\rm {NH_4}^{+}}) &= \frac{n({\rm {NH_4}^{+}})}{V({\rm {NH_4}^{+}})}\\ &\approx \frac{0.154375\; \rm mol}{0.6035\; \rm L} \approx 0.255782\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

However, because $\rm NH_3 \cdot H_2O$ is a weak base, its conjugate $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ would be a weak base.

$\begin{aligned}pK_{\rm a}({{\rm NH_4}}^{+}) &= pK_{\rm w} - pK_{\rm b}({\rm NH_3})\\ &\approx 13.99 - 4.75 = 9.25\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, the following reversible reaction would be take place in the solution at the equivalence point:

$\rm {NH_4}^{+} \rightleftharpoons NH_3 + H^{+}$ .

Let $x\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ be the increase in the concentration of $\rm H^{+}$ in this solution because of this reversible reaction. (Notice that $x \ge 0$ .) Construct the following $\text{RICE}$ table:

$\begin{array}{c|ccccc} \textbf{R}& \rm {\rm NH_4}^{+} & \rightleftharpoons & {\rm NH_3}& + & {\rm H}^{+}\\ \textbf{I} & 0.255782 \; \rm M \\ \textbf{C} & -x \;\rm M & & + x\;\rm M & & + x\; \rm M \\ \textbf{E} & (0.255782 - x)\; \rm M & & x\; \rm M & & x\; \rm M\end{array}$ .

Thus, at equilibrium:

Concentration of the weak acid: $[{\rm {NH_4}^{+}}] \approx (0.255782 - x) \; \rm M$ .
Concentration of the conjugate of the weak acid: $[{\rm NH_3}] = x\; \rm M$ .
Concentration of $\rm H^{+}$ : $[{\rm {H}^{+}}] \approx x\; \rm M$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{[{\rm NH_3}] \cdot [{\rm H^{+}}]}{[{ \rm {NH_4}^{+}}]} = 10^{pK_\text{a}({\rm {NH_4}^{+}})}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{x^2}{0.255782 - x} \approx 10^{-9.25}$

Solve for $x$ . (Notice that the value of $x\!$ is likely to be much smaller than $0.255782$ . Hence, the denominator on the left-hand side $(0.255782 - x) \approx 0.255782$ .)

$x \approx 1.19929 \times 10^{-5}$ .

Hence, the concentration of $\rm H^{+}$ at the equivalence point of this titration would be approximately $1.19929 \times 10^{-5}\; \rm M$ .

Hence, the $pH$ at the equivalence point of this titration would be:

$\begin{aligned}pH &= -\log_{10}[{\rm {H}^{+}}] \\ &\approx -\log_{10} \left(1.19929 \times 10^{-5}\right) \approx 4.92\end{aligned}$ .

A 64.4-g sample of potassium chloride was added to 200.0 g of water at 20 degrees C. Is the solution saturated, unsaturated, or

Tomtit [17]

Hey there!:

is the solution saturated , ie :

They are the ones that have reached the exact solubility coefficient.If we mix 64.4 g of KCl at 200.0 g of water at 20 º C, we'll see that the 32.2 g will dissolve and the remainder (32.2 g) will precipitate, forming the bottom body. In this case we will then have a solution saturated with background. However, if we want only the saturated solution, simply perform a simple filtration to separate the precipitate from the saturated solution.

hope this helps!

What is the enclosure act

VashaNatasha [74]

The Inclosure Acts, which use an old or formal spelling of the word now usually spelt "enclosure", cover enclosure of open fields and common land in England and Wales, creating legal property rights to land previously held in common.
