Question

be estimated. Pre-laboratory work: For the titration of 25.0 mL of 0.1 M HCI (aq) with 0.1 M NaOH (aq), at what volume of NaOH (aq) should the equivalence point be reached and why? If an additional 3.0 mL of 0.1 M NaOH (aq) is then added, calculate the pH of the final solution. What is the initial pH expected for a 0.1 M solution of acetic acid? For the titration of 25.0 mL of 0.1 M acetic acid with 0.1 M NaOH (aq), at what volume of NaOH (a) is the equivalence point reached? Is the pH at the equivalence point greater than, less than or the same as in problem #1 above? Explain. 1. 2. 3. What is the initial pH expected for a 0.1 M solution of phosphoric acid (HsPO4)? 9 For 25.0 mL of 0.1 M H3Po4 (a), what volume of 0.1 M NaOH (aq) is required to fully titrate all three protons to their end points? 4. In the titration of a weak acid with a strong base, how is the half equivalence point determined and what is its significance? How are the pK and Ka of the weak acid determined from the half equivalence point? Carefully read and study the lecture text sections related to this experiment. Prepare and set up your lab notebook. Be sure to leave spaces for recording observations 5. 6. Experimental Procedure: Part 1: Strong Acid - Strong Base Titration Curve 1. Obtain about 30 mL of HCl solution and about 50 mL of NaOH solution. Record

Explanation / Answer

1)For the neutralization rxn,

HCl+NaOH ---->NaCl+H2O

mol HCl/mol NaOH=1:1

M1=0.1M

V1=25.0ml

M2=0.1M

V2=volume of NaOH

M1V1=mol of HCl

M2V2=mol of NaOH

So,M1V1=M2V2

V2=M1V1/M2= 0.1M*25ml/0.1M=25ml

or,V2=25ml =vol of NaOH at eqv point

If V2=25+3=28ml

mol of NaOH=M2V2=0.1M*28ml=(0.1 mol/L)*(0.028L)=2.8*10^-3mol

mol of HCl=M1V1=0.1M*25ml=(0.1 mol/L)*(0.025L)=2.5*10^-3mol

Excess mol NaOH=(2.8*10^-3mol) - (2.5*10^-3mol)=0.3*10^-3 mol

[NaOH]=(0.3*10^-3 mol )/(25+28)*10^-3ml=(0.3*10^-3 mol )/(25+28)*10^-3ml=(0.3*10^-3 mol )/(53)*10^-3ml=0.00566mol/L

NaOH--->OH- +Na+

pOH=-log [OH-]=-log (0.00566)=2.2

pH=14-pOH=14-2.2=11.7

pH=11.7
