A 35.00−mL solution of 0.2500 M HF is titrated with a standardized 0.1606 M solution of NaOH at 25
°
C.
(a) What is the pH of the HF solution before titrant is
added?
(b) How many milliliters of titrant are required to reach
the equivalence point?
mL
(c) What is the pH at 0.50 mL before the equivalence
point?
(d) What is the pH at the equivalence point?
(e) What is the pH at 0.50 mL after the equivalence
point?
HF , Ka = 6.3 x 10^-4
pKa = 3.20
a )
pH = 1/2 (pKa - log C)
= 1/2 (3.20 - log 0.25)
pH = 1.91
b)
At equivalence point :
millimoles of acid = millimoles of base
35 x 0.250 = V x 0.1606
V = 54.48 mL
volume of base = 54.48 mL
c)
millimoles of acid = 35 x 0.25 = 8.75
millimoles of base = 53.98 x 0.1606 = 8.669
HF + NaOH ----------------> NaF + H2O
8.75 8.669 0 0
0.081 0 8.669
pH = pKa + log [NaF]/[HF]
pH = 3.20 + log (8.669 / 0.081)
pH = 5.23
d)
at equivalence point :
salt remains.
salt concentration = 8.75 / 35 + 54.48 = 0.0978 M
pH = 7 + 1/2 (pKa + log C)
= 7 + 1/2 (3.20 + log 0.0978)
pH = 8.10
e )
pOH = 3.05
pH = 10.95
