Question

1) Rank the following titrations in order of increasing pH at the halfway point to equivalence (1 = lowest pH and 5 = highest pH).


1 2 3 4 5  200.0 mL of 0.100 M H2NNH2 (Kb = 3.0 x 10-6) by 0.100 M HCl

1 2 3 4 5  100.0 mL of 0.100 M HC3H5O2 (Ka = 1.3 x 10-5) by 0.100 M NaOH

1 2 3 4 5  100.0 mL of 0.100 M HF (Ka = 7.2 x 10-4) by 0.100 M NaOH

1 2 3 4 5  200.0 mL of 0.100 M (C2H5)2NH (Kb = 1.3 x 10-3) by 0.100 M HCl

1 2 3 4 5  100.0 mL of 0.100 M HI by 0.100 M NaOH

2) Rank the following titrations in order of increasing pH at the equivalence point of the titration (1 = lowest pH and 5 = highest pH).

1 2 3 4 5  200.0 mL of 0.100 M (C2H5)2NH (Kb = 1.3 x 10-3) by 0.100 M HCl

1 2 3 4 5  200.0 mL of 0.100 M H2NNH2 (Kb = 3.0 x 10-6) by 0.100 M HCl

1 2 3 4 5  100.0 mL of 0.100 M HF (Ka = 7.2 x 10-4) by 0.100 M NaOH

Explanation / Answer

1) Rank the following titrations in order of increasing pH at the halfway point to equivalence (1 = lowest pH and 5 = highest pH).

Solution :- larger the kb means higher the pH

So the smallest kb will have lower pH so the order is as follows


  4= 200.0 mL of 0.100 M H2NNH2 (Kb = 3.0 x 10-6) by 0.100 M HCl

  5= 100.0 mL of 0.100 M HC3H5O2 (Ka = 1.3 x 10-5) by 0.100 M NaOH

3=  100.0 mL of 0.100 M HF (Ka = 7.2 x 10-4) by 0.100 M NaOH
2=   200.0 mL of 0.100 M (C2H5)2NH (Kb = 1.3 x 10-3) by 0.100 M HCl

1 =   100.0 mL of 0.100 M HI by 0.100 M NaOH

2) Rank the following titrations in order of increasing pH at the equivalence point of the titration (1 = lowest pH and 5 = highest pH).

5=  100.0 mL of 0.100 M HC3H5O2 (Ka = 1.3 x 10-5) by 0.100 M NaOH

2=  200.0 mL of 0.100 M (C2H5)2NH (Kb = 1.3 x 10-3) by 0.100 M HCl

1=  200.0 mL of 0.100 M H2NNH2 (Kb = 3.0 x 10-6) by 0.100 M HCl

4=  100.0 mL of 0.100 M HF (Ka = 7.2 x 10-4) by 0.100 M NaOH

3 =  100.0 mL of 0.100 M KOH by 0.100 M HCl
