What simplifying assumptions do we usually make in working problems involving equilibria of salts of polyprotic acids? Why are they usually valid? Answer by selecting all true statements.
The approximations are usually valid because the first ionization constant is usually much larger than the second ionization constant.
The approximations are usually valid because the first ionization constant is usually smaller than the second ionization constant.
If the two ionization constants are not very different the approximations are valid.
The concentration of OH- and the conjugate acid of the weak base (the anion of the salt) are approximately equal.
Nearly all of the OH- comes from the first ionization.
Nearly all of the OH- comes from the second ionization.
In the laboratory, a general chemistry student measured the pH of a 0.347 M aqueous
solution of quinoline, C,H,N to be 9.184.
Use the information she obtained to detemine the K, for this base.
K,(experiment) =
a buffer solution is often encountered during the titration of aweak acid. In such a titration, there is a strong base (often sodium hydroxide, as in today’s lab)which is being added to the weak acid. When the strong base reacts with the weak acid, theresult is the conjugate base of the weak acid. It is essential that you not confuse these twobases during the discussion below, and that you write your report so that it is clear which baseyou are talking about. If the pH of the acid solution is monitored during the titration, a pHprofile like the one below can be plotted. For monoprotic acids it will be sigmoid in shape:The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation helps to make sense of this curve (the base referredto is the conjugate base of the weak acid).pH = pKa + log ([base]/[acid])If calculations are desired, two points are particularly important. The first, at the steepest pointof the graph, is the equivalence point. At that point the acid has been completely consumed bythe strong base…
