Explanation / Answer

millimoles of pyridine = 25 x 0.22 = 5.5

kb= 1.7x10^-9

pKb = -logKb = -log (1.7x10^-9) = 8.77

a) before the addition of any HBr

pOH = 1/2 [pKb -logC] = 1/2 [8.77 -log0.22] = 4.71

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 9.29

b) after the addition of 12.5 mL HBr

it is half equivalence point

here salt millimoles = base millimoles

so pOH = pKb

    pOH = 8.77

pH +pOH =14

pH = 5.23

c) after the addition of 16 mL HBr

millimoles of acid = 16 x 0.22 = 3.52

C6H5N + HBr ----------------------> C6H5NH+Br-

5.5          3.52                              0

1.98        0                                  3.52

pOH = pKb + log (3.52 /1.98)

pOH = 9.02

pH = 4.98

d) after the addition of 25 mL HBr

it is equivalence point only salt is formed

salt concentration = millimoles / total volume = 5.5 / (25+25) = 0.11 M

salt is from strong acid weak base so pH <7

pH = 7 -1/2 [pKb + logC]

pH = 7 - 1/2 [8.77 + log 0.11]

pH = 3.09

e) after the addition of 30 mL HBr

strong acid remained in the solution

[H+] = 30 x 0.22 - 5.5 / (25+30) = 0.02 M

pH = -log(0.02)

pH = 1.70
