Question



Map pu University Science Books presented by Sapling Learning eneral Chemistry 4th Edition Calculate the pH for each of the following cases in the titration of 25.0 mL of 0.160 M pyridine, CsHsN(aq) with 0.160 M HBr(aq): At point (a), this is a typical weak base question. Number 1321]| | Blaq)+H2O(l) BH+(aq) +0H-(aq) 13.21 (a) before addition of any HBr #0 + X 0.160 M Number 0.160 M-x (b) after addition of 12.5 mL of HBr 12.73 Number (c) after addition of 23.0 mL of HBr 11.82 Number 0.160 M-x 0.160 M where K 1.7 x10 and B(aq) is pyridine, (d) after addition of 25.0 mL of HBr 7 CsHsN(ag). Solve for x, which is equal to [OH then take the negative logarithm to find pOH which can be converted into pH for the answer to (a). Number (e) after addition of 36.0 mL of HBr 1.54 pH= 14.00-p(H

Explanation / Answer

millimoles of pyridine = 25 x 0.160 = 4

Kb= 1.7x10^-9

pKb = -logKb = -log (1.7x10^-9) = 8.77

a) before the addition of any HBr

pOH = 1/2 [pKb -logC]

= 1/2 [8.77 -log0.160]

= 4.78

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 9.22

b) after the addition of 12.5 mL HBr

it is half equivalence point

here salt millimoles = base millimoles

so pOH = pKb

    pOH = 8.77

pH +pOH =14

pH = 5.23

c) after the addition of 16 mL HBr

millimoles of acid = 23 x 0.160 = 3.68

C6H5N + HBr ----------------------> C6H5NH+Br-

4          3.68                              0

0.32        0                                  3.68

pOH = pKb + log (3.68 /0.32)

pOH = 9.83

pH = 4.17

d) after the addition of 25 mL HBr

it is equivalence point only salt is formed

salt concentration = millimoles / total volume = 4 / (25+25) = 0.08 M

salt is from strong acid weak base so pH <7

pH = 7 -1/2 [pKb + logC]

pH = 7 - 1/2 [8.77 + log 0.08]

pH = 3.16
