- Sketch the titration curve for a weak acid titrated by a strong base. When performing calculations concerning weak acidstrong base titrations, the general two-slep procedure is to solve a stoichiometry problem first, then to solve an equilibrium problem to determine the pH. 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 base (NaOH, for example) reacts to completion with the weak acid, HA. 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 acid-strong base titration? Does the pH at the halfway point to equivalence have to be less than 7.0? What does the pH at the halfway point equal? Compare and contrast the titration curves for a strong acidstrong base titration and a weak acidstrong base titration.arrow_forwardA solution consisting of 25.00 g NH4Cl in 178 mL of water is titrated with 0.114 M KOH.

- Isocyanic acid (HNCO) can be prepared by heating sodium cyanate in the presence of solid oxalic acid according to the equation 2NaOCN(s)+H2C2O4(s)2HNCO(l)+Na2C2O4(s) Upon isolating pure HNCO(l), an aqueous solution of HNCO can be prepared by dissolving the liquid HNCO in water. What is the pH of a l00.-mL solution of HNCO prepared from the reaction of 10.0 g each of NaOCN and H2C2O4, assuming all of the HNCO produced is dissolved in solution? (Ka of HNCO = 1.2 l04.)arrow_forwardA solution with a pH of 9.22 is prepared by adding water to 0.413 mol of KX to make 2.00 L of solution. What is the pH of the solution after 0.368 mol of HX is added?arrow_forwardA friend asks the following: Consider a buffered solution made up of the weak acid HA and its salt NaA. If a strong base like NaOH is added, the HA reacts with the OH to form A. Thus the amount of acid (HA) is decreased, and the amount of base (A) is increased. Analogously, adding HCI to the buffered solution forms more of the acid (HA) by reacting with the base (A). Thus how can we claim that a buffered solution resists changes in the pH of the solution? How would you explain buffering to this friend?arrow_forward
- A monoprotic organic acid that has a molar mass of 176.1 g/mol is synthesized. Unfortunately, the acid produced is not completely pure. In addition, it is not soluble in water. A chemist weighs a 1.8451-g sample of the impure acid and adds it to 100.0 mL of 0.1050 M NaOH. The acid is soluble in the NaOH solution and reacts to consume most of the NaOH. The amount of excess NaOH is determined by titration: It takes 3.28 mL of 0.0970 M HCl to neutralize the excess NaOH.
