Question

Consider the titration of 15.0 mL of 0.140 M Na A (a weak base) and 0.100 M H Cl. Calculate the pH of the solution after 44.0 mL of H Cl has been added. The K b of the base is 1.01E-4

To avoid rounding errors report your answer with two decimal places. 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Number of moles of NaA = 0.015 × 0.14 = 0.0021 mol

Number of moles of HCl = 0.1 × 0.044 = 0.0044 mol

0.0021 mol of NaA reacts with 0.0021 mol of HCl to form 0.0021 mol of HA (weak acid) and 0.0021 mol of NaCl (neutral). The remaining number of moles of HCl in the final solution is equal to 0.0044 – 0.0021 = 0.0023 mol. The pH value of the solution is due to the hydrogen ion released from the weak acid HA and strong acid HCl.
