Question
**Titration of Hydrotelluric Acid with Potassium Hydroxide** **Overview:** A 24.4 mL sample of 0.2124 M hydrotelluric acid (H₂Te) is titrated with 0.2124 M potassium hydroxide (KOH). **Objective:** Determine the pH of the solution after the addition of specific volumes of KOH: 12.2 mL, 24.4 mL, 36.6 mL, and 48.8 mL. **Data Table:** | Step | mL KOH Added | pH | |------|--------------|------| | 1 | 12.2 | | | 2 | 24.4 | | | 3 | 36.6 | | | 4 | 48.8 | | **Ionization Constants for H₂Te:** - First ionization constant: \(2.3 \times 10^{-3}\) - Second ionization constant: \(1.6 \times 10^{-11}\) **Instructions:** Calculate the pH at each step of the titration process, using the ionization constants provided for H₂Te. This involves understanding the titration curve, which will indicate the changes in pH when equivalent points are reached through the titration. **Note:** This document has not been submitted for review.

Expert Solution
Step 1

H2Te is a diprotic acid with Ka1 = 2.3*10-3 and Ka2 = 1.6*10-11 

The dissociation equations are:

H2Te(aq) ⇌ HTe-(aq) + H+(aq) ; pKa1 = -log(Ka1) = - log(2.3*10-3) = 2.64

HTe-(aq) ⇌ Te2-(aq) + H+(aq) ; pKa2 = -log(Ka2) = - log(1.6*10-11) = 10.8 

potassium hydroxide, KOH is a monoacidic base.
