Chapter 14, Problem 8RQ
Sketch the titration curve for a weak base titrated by a strong acid. Weak base–strong acid titration problems also follow a two-step procedure. What reaction takes place in the stoichiometry part of the problem? What is assumed about this reaction? At the various points in your titration curve, list the major species present after the strong acid (HNO3, for example) reacts to completion with the weak base, B. What equilibrium problem would you solve at the various points in your titration curve to calculate the pH? Why is pH < 7.0 at the equivalence point of a weak base–strong acid titration? If pH = 6.0 at the halfway point to equivalence, what is the Kb value for the weak base titrated? Compare and contrast the titration curves for a strong base–strong acid titration and a weak base–strong acid titration.

Methyl Orange and phenolpthalein are common chemical indicators often used in
titrations. What is the role of a chemical indicator?
A substance added to a reaction that provides the proper environment for the reaction to move
forward.
A substance consumed in a reaction that changes the rate of the reaction.
A substance that gives a visible sign, usually a color change, when a specific reaction condition is
reached.
A chemical indicator is necessary for the neutralization reaction between a strong acid and strong
base to go to completion.
In this lab, we will experimentally determine the titration curve for the titration of a weak acid solution against a strong base solution. The weak acid we will use is potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHP, its chemical structure is shown below.
KHP is an ionic compound composed of a potassium cation K+ and a hydrogen phthalate anion HP–. HP– is a weak acid and upon dissolving in water, can lower the pH of the solution.
(a) Suggest the chemical reaction(s) when a solid sample of KHP is dissolved in water, writing out the chemical equations for them.
(b) Sketch the structure of KHP from above and circle the hydrogen atom that is responsible for its acidity.
(c) Calculate the pH of a solution made of 0.50 g of KHP and 50 mL of water. KHP has a molar mass of 204.2 g and at 25 °C has a pKa of 5.4.
When doing a titration too quickly, you are more likely to overshoot the endpoint, to add more than the minimum amount of titrant needed. When the solution is very pink, you have overshoot the endpoint. Will this tend to make your calculated concentration of the acid too high, too low, or will it now make a difference? Explain clearly.

Lower because more volume of H₂SO4 is being used to titrate the moles of NaOH. Higher because more volume of H₂SO4 is being used to titrate the moles of NaOH. Higher because more volume of NaOH is being used to titrate the moles of H₂SO4. No effect because the moles of H₂SO4 titrated does not change.
