Explanation / Answer

1)

we know that

moles = molarity x volume (ml) / 1000

so

moles of CH3COOH taken = 0.3 x 200 / 1000 = 0.06

moles of Ba(OH)2 taken = 0.3 x 100 / 1000 = 0.03

now

given CH3COOH and Ba(OH)2

the reaction is given by

2CH3COOH + Ba(OH)2 ---> Ba(CH3COO)2 + 2H20

we can see that

moles of CH3COOH reacted = 2 x moles of Ba(OH)2 taken = 2 x 0.03 = 0.06

so

all the Ba(OH)2 and CH3COOH are completely used up

now

moles of Ba(CH3COO)2 formed = moles of Ba(OH)2 taken = 0.03

now

final volume= 200 + 100 = 300 ml

now

only Ba(CH3COO)2 remains in the solution

now

moles oof CH3COO- = 2 x moles of Ba(CH3COO)2 = 2 x 0.03 = 0.06

final volume = 300 ml

so

[CH3COO-] = 0.06 x 1000 / 300 = 0.2 M

now

as it is a salt of weak acid CH3COOH and strong base Ba(OH)2

it will undergo anionic hydrolysis

CH3COO- + H20 ---> CH3COOH + OH-

Kb = [CH3COOH] [OH-] /[CH3C00-]

using ICE table

initial conc of CH3COO- , CH3COOH ,OH- are 0.2 , 0 , 0

change in conc of CH3COO- , CH3COOH , OH- are -x , +x , +x

final conc of CH3COO- , CH3COOH , OH- are 0.2 -x , x , x

now

Kb = [x] [x] / [0.2-x]

Kb value for acetic acid is 5.5 * 10-10

as Kb value is very small , x will be very small

so

0.2-x ---> 0.2

so

Kb = [x]^2 / 0.2

[x]^2 = 0.2 * 5.5 * 10-10

[x] = 1.048 * 10-5

now

pOH = -log [OH-]

pOH = -log 1.048 * 10-5

pOH = 4.98

now

pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 14 - 4.98

pH = 9.02

so

pH of the resulting solution is 9.02
