Answer to Problem 167AE
The pH of the initial weak base solution is 9.67.
Explanation of Solution
Initial pH of the analyte solution; HONH2 is a weak base that forms an equilibrium when dissolved in water. The equilibrium is as follows.
HONH2+H2O⇌HONH3++OH−
The amount of weak base at the beginning =0.2mol/L×100.0×10−3L=20×10−3mol . By constructing an ICE table, the amount of lactate ion in the solution after the acid dissociation can be determined.

The pH of the solution after adding the acid is 6.88.
Explanation of Solution
Addition of 25.0mLofacid:
Total amount of base to be neutralized =0.2mol/L×100.0×10−3L=20×10−3mol
Amount of base added =0.100mol/L×25.0×10−3L=25×10−4mol
Then the ICE table after the addition of base is created in order to determine the pH of the solution using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation.

The base dissociation constant value is 1.1×10−8
Thus,
pKb=−logKb=−log(1.1×10−8)=7.96
Since, volume is same thus, number of moles can be used instead of concentrations.

The pH of the solution after adding the acid is 6.31.
Explanation of Solution
Addition of 70.0mLofacid:
Total amount of base to be neutralized =0.2mol/L×100.0×10−3L=20×10−3mol
Amount of base added =0.100mol/L×70.0×10−3L=70×10−4mol
Then the ICE table after the addition of base is created in order to determine the pH of the solution using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation.
The pH value of the weak base at equivalent point needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
At equivalent point the concentration of acid and base (in which one of the species is weak) is equal in the solution. Thus, the pH will depend on the acidic or basic salt formed.

Expert Solution
Answer to Problem 167AE
The pH of the solution at the equivalence point is 3.60.
Explanation of Solution
At the equivalence point, The amount of acid added =20×10−3mol
The volume of acid added =20×10−3mol0.1mol/L=0.2L=200.0mL
At this point, there is no excess acid or base. Therefore, the only possible reaction here is the dissociation of the conjugate acid of the ammonia (that is ammonium ion).
HONH3++H2O⇌HONH2+H3O+
Thereafter, using the Ka value for this weak base, the amount of hydrogen ions in the solution can be determined to get the pH value at this point.
Now, total volume of the solution is 300 mL thus, molarity of HONH3+ solution will be:
M=nV=0.02 mol300 mL=0.0667 M

Then the pH can be calculated as follows:

This value is equal to the amount of hydrogen ions in the solution.
pH=−log[H+]=−log[2.5×10−4]=3.60
Thus, the pH value at equivalence point is 3.60.

Answer to Problem 167AE
The pH of the solution after adding acid is 1.60 .
Explanation of Solution
Addition of 300.0mLacid, The amount of acid added =0.1mol/L×300.0×10−3L=0.03mol
At this point, there is excess acid in the solution, thus, the pH can be calculated as follows:
Excess amount of acid in the solution =0.03−0.02=0.01mol
The amount of hydrogen ions =0.01mol
The concentration of hydrogen ions =0.01mol(100.0+300.0)×10−3L=0.025mol/L
pH=−log[H+]=−log[0.025]=1.60

Answer to Problem 167AE
100 mL
Explanation of Solution
The pKb value for NH2OH is 7.96. From the given pH value, pOH of the solution can be calculated as follows:
pOH=14−pH=14−6.04=7.96
The Henderson Hesselbalch equation can be represented as follows:
pOH=pKb+log[salt][base]
Since, the volume is same thus, concentration can be replaced by number of moles.
7.96=7.96+log[salt][base]
Thus, the number of moles of salt and base will be same that is NH3OH+ and NH2OH respectively.
This is the condition which is halfway to the equivalence point. For the equivalence point, volume of HCl required was 200 mL thus, at halfway equivalence point the volume will be half to it. Therefore, volume of HCl is 100 mL.
