Explanation of Solution

A620HIn-620b[HIn-]In2-620b[In2-]A434HIn-434b[HIn-]In2-434b[In2-]

The solution obtained by solving the two above equations are,

[HIn-]=1D(A620εIn2-434b-A434εIn2-620b)[In2-]=1D(A434εHIn-620b-A620εHIn-434b)D=b2(εHIn-620εIn2-434 - εIn2-620εHIn-434)

Divide the expression for [In2-] by expression for [HIn-] . The resultant equation is,

[In2-][HIn-]=A434εHIn-620-A620εHIn-434A620εIn2-434-A434εIn2-620

Divide the numerator and denominator on right side by A434 . The solution is

[In2-][HIn-]=εHIn-620-RaεHIn-434RaεIn2-434In2-620[In2-][HIn-]=RaεHIn-434HIn-620εIn2-620-RaεIn2-434

Explanation of Solution

For indicator, the mass balance can be given as ,

[HIn-]+[In2-]=FIn

Divide by [HIn-] on both sides ,

[HIn-][HIn-]+[In2-][HIn-]=FIn[HIn-]1+RIn=FIn[HIn-][HIn-]=FInRIn+1

The acid dissociation constant of the indicator is,

KIn=[In2-][H+][HIn-]

Substitute FIn/(RIn+1) for [HIn-] gives,

KIn=[In2-][H+](RIn+1)FIn[In2-]=KInFIn[H+](RIn+)

Explanation of Solution

[H+]=KIn/RIn

RIn can be calculated from,

RIn=RAε434HIn620HInε620In2--RAε434In2-=(2.84)(8.00×103)-(0)(1.70×104)-(2.84)(1.90×103)=1.958[H+]=KIn/RIn[H+]=(2.0×10-7)/1.958[H+]=1.02×10-7M

The value of [H+] is substituted into mass balance and an unknown equation of [CO2(aq)] is produced,

Explanation of Solution

Na+,HIn-,In2-,HCO3-,CO32-andOH- are present in the solution. If the net cation charge is 92.1μM , the net charge on anion should be 92.1μM and the ionic strength must approximately 92μm10-4M . The activity coefficients are close to 1.00 and hence an ionic strength of 10-4M is low.

The exact ionic strength can be calculated as,

[OH-]=Kw[H+]=0.07μM

[HIn-]=FInRIn+1=16.9μm[In2-]=KInFIn[H+](RIn+1)=33.1μm[HCO3-]=K1[CO2(aq)][H+]=2.94[CO2(aq)]=8.9μM[CO32-]=K1K2[CO2(aq)][H+]2=0.0019[CO2(aq)]=0.003μM

Ionic strength =

12cizi2={[Na+].12+[H+].12+[OH-].12+[In2-].22+[HCO3-].12+[CO32-].22+[CO32-].22}=125μM
