Draw the titration curve for a weak acid with a pKa of 3.2
Label the two axes properly and indicate with an arrow where on the curve the ratio of salt to acid is 3:1. What is the pH at this point?
please draw figure and indicate where. that 3:1 ratio is
The titration curve of a weak acid is the plot between pH values and the volume of base added to neutralize the acid. pH values are kept at y axis and volume of base added is kept at x axis. The titration curve of a weak acid when treated with strong base is shown below:-
The equivalence point is above pH 7 due to the formation of salt of a weak acid and strong base.
Given that:- The ratio of salt to acid = 3:1
Using henderson hasselbalch equation to calculate the pH of a acidic buffer. The pKa of weak acid is 3.2.
Applying the values in the above equation as:-
The pH value is shown in the image below:-
