Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.

Please note that while the results of the intermediate calculations below are
displayed rounded to 3 significant digits, the actual calculations are done
internally without rounding.
When the strong base, Ba(OH)2, is added, it reacts to neutralize the HCIO. The
balanced equation is:
2HCIO + Ba(oн),—Ва(ClO), + 2 H20
The tabulated value of K, for HClo is 3.50x10-8.
(1) pH at the midpoint of the titration
At the midpoint of the titration, half of the HCIO has been converted
to clo", and the ratio [HCIO] / [Clo] = 1.
This is a buffer solution, and the pH can be calculated using the
Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:
[Clo]
pH = pk, + log
[HCIO).
pH = -log(3.50×10-8) + log(1) = 7.46 + 0 = 7.46
Note that the pH at the midpoint of the titration is equal to the pk3a
of the weak acid, HCIO.
(2) pH at the equivalence point: 22.4 mL of 0.397 M HClo
Ba(Он)2
0.402 M
The number of moles of the weak acid HCIO is given by 0.397M X
2.24x10-2 L = 8.89×10-3 mol.
The number of moles of Ba(OH)2 required to neutralize the acid is
1 mol
Ba(OH)2

-Ba(ОН)2

The volume of Ba(OH), required is thus 4.45x10-3 mol / 0.402 M
= 1.11x10-2 L
and the total volume at the equivalence point is 2.24x10-2 L +
1.11x10-2 L = 3.35×10-2 L
The number of moles of Clo" that is formed is
1 mol Clo-
8.89x10-3 mol HClo

and the concentration of Clo" at the equivalence point is 8.89x10-3

![HClo
and the concentration of Clo at the equivalence point is 8.89x10-3

The value of Kh for the weak base Clo can be calculated from the
tabulated value of K, for its conjugate acid HClo.
1.0x10-14
Kh =
2.86x10-7

Solve for the [OH] in a 0.266 M solution of Clo using the ICE
method:

[Clo]
0.266 - x
Assume that x is small relative to 0.266. This is acceptable if
[lo), > 100-Kg: 0.266 > 100-2.86x10-7.
Then:
2.86×10-7 = x² / (0.266)
x = [(2.86x10-7)(0.266)]1/2 = 2.76×10-4 M = [OH"]
[H3o+] = 1.0x10-14 / 2.76×10-4 = 3.63×10-11 M
pH = -log [H3o+] = 10.44
(3) pH after 16.6 mL 0.402 M Ba(OH), have been added to
22.4 ml 0.397 M HCIO
From part (2), the number of moles of Ba(OH)2 required
to neutralize the acid is 4.45×10-3 mol Ba(OH)2.
2 mol OH"
Moles OH" added = 0.402 M
1.33x10

Вa(он)2 X 1.66х10°2 L X

2 mol
Ba(OH)2
There is, therefore, excess OH".
Moles OH" excess =
1.33x10-2 - 8.89×10-3 =
4.45×10-3 mol
Total volume = 22.4 mL + 16.6 mL = 39.0 mL =
3.90x10-2 L
[OH] = 4.45x10-3 mol / 3.90x10-2 L = 0.114 M
from the excess Ba(OH)2
The weak base clo will have only a negligible effect on
the hydroxide ion concentration, so the pOH can be
calculated from the molarity of the excess OH":
pOH = - log(0.114) = 0.94
pH = 14 - 0.94 = 13.06
