Question

BenzoicacidhasaKa of6.46x10 .

What is the pH of the solution that results when 25.0 mL of 0.300 M benzoic acid are titrated with 20.0 mL of 0.200 M KOH?

Expert Solution
Step 1

The number of moles of benzoic acid, KOH, and the concentration of KOH and benzoic acid is calculated as shown below.

nKOH=20.0 mL×0.200 M×1.0 L1000.0 mL=0.004 molnBenzoic acid=25.0 mL×0.300 M×1.0 L1000.0 mL=0.0075 molVT=45 mLMKOH=0.004 mol45 mL×1000 mL1.0 L=0.089 MMBenzoic acid=0.0075 mol45 mL×1000 mL1.0 L=0.167 M
