- What is the effect on the concentration of acetic acid, hydronium ion, and acetate ion when the following are added to an acidic buffer solution of equal concentrations of acetic acid and sodium acetate: (a) HCl. (b) KCH3CO2. (C) NaCl. (d) KOH. (e) CH3CO2Harrow_forwardThe pigment cyanidin aglycone is one of the anthocyanin molecules that gives red cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata f. rubra) its characteristic red coloration. Many chemistry students have used this red cabbage indicator to study acid-base chemistry. Estimate tire pH range at which cyanidin agly-cone shows a color change. Anth-H(aq) Anth(aq) + H+ (aq) Ka = 1.3 107arrow_forwardThe weak base ethanolamine. HOCH2CH2NH2, can be titrated with HCl. HOCH2CH2NH2(aq)+H3O+(aq)HOCH2CH2NH3+(aq)+H2O(l) Assume you have 25.0 mL of a 0.010 M solution of ethanolamine and titrate it with 0.0095 M HCl. (Kb for ethanolamine is 3.2 107.) (a) What is the pH of the ethanolamine solution before the titration begins? (b) What is the pH at the equivalence point? (c) What is the pH at the halfway point of the titration? (d) Which indicator in Figure 17.11 would be the best choice to detect the equivalence point? (e) Calculate the pH of the solution after adding 5.00, 10.0, 20.0, and 30.0 mL of the acid. (f) Combine the information in parts (a), (b), (c), and (e), and plot an approximate titration curve.arrow_forward
- Some K2SO3 and KHSO3 are dissolved in 250.0 mL of solution and the resulting pH is 7.25. Which is greater in this buffer solution, the concentration of SO32 or the concentration of HSO32? If [SO32] = 1.0 M in this solution, calculate the concentration of HSO3.arrow_forwardCalculate the pH after 0.010 mole of gaseous HCl is added to 250.0 mL of each of the following buffered solutions. a. 0.050 M NH3/0.15 M NH4Cl b. 0.50 M NH3/1.50 M NH4Cl Do the two original buffered solutions differ in their pH or their capacity? What advantage is there in having a buffer with a greater capacity?arrow_forwardCalculate the pH of a solution that is 0.40 M H2NNH2 and 0.80 M H2NNH3NO3. In order for this buffer to have pH = pKa, would you add HCl or NaOH? What quantity (moles) of which reagent would you add to 1.0 L of the original buffer so that the resulting solution has pH = pKa?arrow_forward
- Calculate the cadmium ion concentration, [Cd2+], in a solution prepared by mixing 0.100 L of 0.0100 M Cd(NO3)2 with 1.150 L of 0.100 NH3(aq).arrow_forwardSilver cyanide (AgCN) is an insoluble sail with Ksp = 2.2 1012. Compare the effects on the solubility of silver cyanide by addition of HNO3(aq) or by addition of NH3(aq).arrow_forward
