Question
A solution is prepared that is initially 0.38 M in ethylamine (\( \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{NH}_2 \)), a weak base, and 0.12 M in ethylammonium chloride (\( \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{NH}_3\text{Cl} \)). Complete the reaction table below, so that you could use it to calculate the pH of this solution.

Use \( x \) to stand for the unknown change in \([ \text{OH}^- ]\). You can leave out the \( M \) symbol for molarity.

|                        | \([ \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{NH}_2 ]\) | \([ \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{NH}_3^+ ]\) | \([ \text{OH}^- ]\) |

| **change**             |                                           |                                           |                    |
| **final**              |                                           |                                           |                    |

This table should be filled by using the initial concentrations and the changes during the reaction involving the species \([ \text{OH}^- ]\) represented by \( x \).

Expert Solution
Step 1: Basic discussion

In the question itself, the initial concentration of ethylamine and ethylammonium chloride is given. 

It is given- [C2H5NH3Cl]= 0.12M


we know C2H5NH3Cl dissociates into C2H5NH3+ and Cl- .  so we can write-

Initial concentration of [C2H5NH3+]=0.12M


Initial concentration of [C2H5NH2] = 0.38M
