Transcribed Image Text:**Determining pH During the Titration of Ethylamine**
In this exercise, we will determine the pH during the titration of 32.5 mL of 0.333 M ethylamine (C₂H₅NH₂, \( K_b = 4.3 \times 10^{-4} \)) by 0.333 M HClO₄ at the following points:
1. **(a) Before the addition of any HClO₄**
- Calculate the initial pH of the ethylamine solution.
2. **(b) After the addition of 13.5 mL of HClO₄**
- Determine the pH after this volume of titrant is added.
3. **(c) At the titration midpoint**
- Find the pH when half of the equivalent amount of acid has been added.
4. **(d) At the equivalence point**
- Determine the pH at the point where moles of acid equal moles of base.
5. **(e) After adding 49.1 mL of HClO₄**
- Calculate the pH after this excess volume of titrant is added.
This exercise helps in understanding the changes in pH throughout the titration process, highlighting key points such as the titration midpoint and equivalence point.
