Answer to Problem 1DQ

  • If NaHSO4 is added into the water; pH will not be changed.
  • If NaHCO3 is added into the water; pH of the solution will be increased.

Explanation of Solution

Below is the equation of ionization of NaHSO4, when NaHSO4 (sodium hydrogen sulfate) is dissolved into water. Sodium hydrogen sulfate is completely dissociated into sulfate and sodium ion.

  NaHSO4(aq)Na+(aq) + HSO4-(aq)

Therefore, H2O, HSO4-, and Na+ are the major species present in the solution.

Strong acid H2SO4 and strong base NaOH is used to form NaHSO4. It is a salt, i.e., neutral and comprises of anion and cation of strong acid and strong base. It means if more NaHSO4 is added into the water it will not impact H+ therefore pH will not be changed.

In place of NaHSO4 (sodium hydrogen sulfate), if NaHCO3 (baking soda) is added then the pH changes. Weak acid H2CO3and strong base NaOH is used to form NaHCO3. Thus, it is a basic salt. It means if more NaHCO3 is added into the water it will increase the OH- concentration and the pH of the solution will increase.

  • For conjugate acidbase pairs, how are Ka and Kb related? Consider the reaction of acetic acid in water CH3CO2H(aq)+H2O(l)CH3CO2(aq)+H3O+(aq) where Ka = 1.8 105 a. Which two bases are competing for the proton? b. Which is the stronger base? c. In light of your answer to part b. why do we classify the acetate ion (CH3CO2) as a weak base? Use an appropriate reaction to justify your answer. In general, as base strength increases, conjugate acid strength decreases. Explain why the conjugate acid of the weak base NH3 is a weak acid. To summarize, the conjugate base of a weak acid is a weak base and the conjugate acid of a weak base is a weak acid (weak gives you weak). Assuming Ka for a monoprotic strong acid is 1 106, calculate Kb for the conjugate base of this strong acid. Why do conjugate bases of strong acids have no basic properties in water? List the conjugate bases of the six common strong acids. To tie it all together, some instructors have students think of Li+, K+, Rb+, Cs+, Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+ as the conjugate acids of the strong bases LiOH, KOH. RbOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, and Ba(OH)2. Although not technically correct, the conjugate acid strength of these cations is similar to the conjugate base strength of the strong acids. That is, these cations have no acidic properties in water; similarly, the conjugate bases of strong acids have no basic properties (strong gives you worthless). Fill in the blanks with the correct response. The conjugate base of a weak acid is a_____base. The conjugate acid of a weak base is a_____acid. The conjugate base of a strong acid is a_____base. The conjugate acid of a strong base is a_____ acid. (Hint: Weak gives you weak and strong gives you worthless.)

Why? d An aqueous solution is made in which the concentration of weak base B is one half the concentration of its acidic salt, BHCl, where BH+ is the conjugate weak add of B.
