The
Explanation of Solution
The initial amount of
The amount of
Therefore, the
From the stoichiometric point the amount of
The amount of
Hence, the amount of
The total volume of the solution at the stoichiometric point is calculated as,
The concentration of
Therefore, the concentration of
The chemical equilibrium reaction is given below.
Initial concentration | 0.015 | 0 | 0 |
Change in concentration | -x | +x | +x |
Equilibrium concentration | 0.015-x | x | x |
The equilibrium concentration values are obtained in the above table and is substituted in above equation and is given below.
The above equation, assume that the x present in 0.015-x is very small than 0.015 then it can be negligible and it follows,
Ammonia
Hence, the concentration of
Now, we can calculate the pH of the solution,
Hence, the

C8H5O4(aq)+H2O(l)C8H4O42(aq)+H3O+(aq) What is the pH of a 0.050 M solution of potassium hydrogen phthalate. KC8H5O4? Note: To find the pH for a solution of the anion, we must take into account that the ion is amphiprotic. It can be shown that, for most cases of amphiprotic ions, the H3O+ concentration is [H3O+]=Ka1Ka2 For phthalic acid, C8H6O4 is Ka1 is 1.12 103, and Ka2 is 3.91 106.arrow_forwardGalvanic cells harness spontaneous oxidationreduction reactions to produce work by producing a current. They do so by controlling the flow of electrons from the species oxidized to the species reduced. How is a galvanic cell designed? What is in the cathode compartment? The anode compartment? What purpose do electrodes serve? Which way do electrons always flow in the wire connecting the two electrodes in a galvanic cell? Why is it necessary to use a salt bridge or a porous disk in a galvanic cell? Which way do cations flow in the salt bridge? Which way do the anions flow?
