8.5 ml 9.9 ml Volume of Titrant at Second Equivalence Point (mL and L Total Moles of NaoH Added at Second Eq. Point (moles) Moles of H3PO4 Titrated at Second Eq. Point (moles) ation of H3PO Solution based on second eq. points of each titration) Average Concentration of H3PO4 Solution MD (from first and second eq. points of both titrations) Determination of the pK, for the Second Ionization of H3PO4 Volume of Titrant at Second Half Equivalence Point (mLO 7.7 m 6.55 ml 70 pH at Second Half Eq. Point 6.8 pKa for Second Ionization of H3PO4

Explanation / Answer

Assuming 50 ml of 1 M of H3PO4 is titrated with 1 M NaOH

moles = molarity x volume

molarity = moles/volume

H3PO4 + 1OH- ---> H2PO4- + H2O ------ Ist equivalence point

H3PO4 + 1.5OH- ------> 0.75H2PO4- + 0.75HPO4^2- + 1.5 H2O------- IInd half equivalence point

H3PO4 + 2OH- ----> HPO4^2- + 2H2O ------ IInf equivalence point

moles of NaOH added = moles of H3PO4 ---- at First equivalence point

moles of NaOH added = 1/2 moles of H3PO4 ----- second equivalence point

Volume of NaOH needed to reach second half equivallence point = 3 times volume needed to reach first half Eq point

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Volume of titrant at second Eq. point                                      9.9 ml (0.0099 L)                    8.5 ml (0.0085 L)

Total moles of NaOH added at IInd Eq point (moles)                      0.0099                                   0.0085

Moles of H3PO4 added at IIn Eq pt.(moles)                                   0.00495                                 0.00425

conc. of H3PO4 (based on IInd Eq.pt. (M)                                        0.099                                     0.085

Avg. conc. of H3PO4 (M)                                                                  0.092

pH at second half Eq. point = pKa2 = 7.20

pKa for second ionization of H3PO4 = 7.20
