Concept explainers
Consider the following pH curves for 100.0 mL of two different acids with the same initial concentration each titrated by 0.10 M NaOH.
a. Which plot represents a pH curve of a weak acid, and which plot is for a strong acid? How can you tell? Cite three differences between the plots that help you decide.
b. In both cases the pH is relatively constant before the pH changes greatly. Does this mean that at some point in each titration each solution was a buffered solution?
c. True or false? The equivalence point volume for each titration is the same. Explain your answer.
d. True or false? The pH at the equivalence point for each titration is the same. Explain your answer.

- The titration curves for two acids with the same base are shown on this graph. (a) Which is the curve for the weaker acid? Explain your choice. (b) Give the approximate pH at the equivalence point for the titration of each acid. (c) Explain why the pH at the equivalence point differs for each acid. (d) Explain why the starting pH values of the two acids differ. (e) Which indicator or indicators, phenolphthalein, bromthymol blue, or methyl red, could be used for the titration of Acid 1? For the titration of Acid 2? Explain your choices.arrow_forwardConsider the nanoscale-level representations for Question 110 of the titration of the aqueous weak acid HX with aqueous NaOH, the titrant. Water molecules and Na+ ions are omitted for clarity. Which diagram corresponds to the situation: After a very small volume of titrant has been added to the initial HX solution? When enough titrant has been added to take the solution just past the equivalence point? Halfway to the equivalence point? At the equivalence point? Nanoscale representations for Question 110.arrow_forwardEach of the solutions in the table has the same volume and the same concentration, 0.1 M. Which solution requires the greatest volume of 0.1-M NaOH to titrate to the equivalence point? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- A 0.2481 M solution of KOH is used to titrate 30.00 mL of 0.269 M hydrobromic acid. Assume that volumes are additive. (a) Write a balanced net ionic equation for the reaction that takes place during the titration. (b) What are the species present at the equivalence point? (c) What volume of KOH is required to reach the equivalence point? (d) What is the pH of the solution 1. before any KOH is added? 2. halfway to the equivalence point? 3. at the equivalence point?arrow_forwardThe titration of 0.100 M acetic acid with 0.100 M NaOH is described in the text. What is the pH of the solution when 35.0 mL of the base has been added to 100.0 mL of 0.100 M acetic acid?arrow_forwardConsider the following pH curves for 100.0 mL of two different acids with the same initial concentration each titrated by 0.10 M NaOH. a. Which plot represents a pH curve of a weak acid, and which plot is for a strong acid? How can you tell? Cite three differences between the plots that help you decide. b. In both cases the pH is relatively constant before the pH changes greatly. Does this mean that at some point in each titration each solution was a buffered solution? c. True or false? The equivalence point volume for each titration is the same. Explain your answer. d. True or false? The pH at the equivalence point for each titration is the same. Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- You are given the following acidbase titration data, where each point on the graph represents the pH after adding a given volume of titrant (the substance being added during the titration). a What substance is being titrated, a strong acid, strong base, weak acid, or weak base? b What is the pH at the equivalence point of the tiration? c What indicator might you use to perform this titration? Explain.arrow_forwardIn the titration of a strong acid with a strong base, how do you calculate these quantities?a. initial pHb. pH before the equivalence pointc. pH at the equivalence pointd. pH beyond the equivalence pointarrow_forwardCan you help me with this?arrow_forward
- In the titration of a weak acid with a strong base, how do you calculate these quantities?a. initial pHb. pH before the equivalence pointc. pH at one-half the equivalence pointd. pH at the equivalence pointe. pH beyond the equivalence pointarrow_forwardAnswer the following questions about preparing the same buffer solution using three different methods. All three buffers are to have a pH of 9.00. Be sure to show your logic clearly and with all steps in the calculation. a. Given two separate solutions, 0.100 M ammonia and 0.100 M ammonium chloride, calculate the volume of each solution required to form 60.0 mL of a mixture that has the desired pH. b. Calculate the amount of solid NH4Cl to add to 60.0 mL of 0.100 M ammonia to form a mixture that has the desired pH. Assume no volume change in the solution. Hint: Use the same buffer ratio that you used in (a). c. Calculate the volume of 0.100 M HCl that is required to react with 50.0 mL of 0.100 M ammonia to form a mixture that has the desired pH. Hint: think of this as a titration problem. Unlike (a) and (b), there IS a reaction between acid and base.arrow_forwardConsider the titration of 40.00 mL of 0.250 M NH3 with 0.250 M HCl. Assume that the solution will reach its equivalence point when 40.00 mL of HCl is added. a) Calculate the pH after 40.00 mL of HCl is added (at equivalence point). b) Calculate the pH after 60.00 mL of HCl is added (after equivalence point).arrow_forward
