We have relation, pKa = - log Ka
pKa = - log ( 6.8 10 -04 ) = 3.17
We have, No. of moles = Molarity volume of solution in L
No. of moles of HF = 0.200 mol / L 0.2000 L = 0.0400 mol
Consider a reaction , HF + NaOH NaF + H2O
Let's use ICE table.
Concentration ( moles) | HF | NaOH | NaF |
Initial | 0.0400 | X | |
Change | - X | -X | +X |
Equilibrium | 0.0400 | 0.0 | X |
When NaOH is added to HF solution, some of the HF molecules are converted into NaF. Hence, at this stage solution contain weak acid HF and it's salt NaF. This solution acts as a buffer solution and it's pH is calculated by using Henderson's equation.
pH = pKa + log [NaF] / [HF]
3.50 = 3.17 + log X / 0.0400 - X
3.50 - 3.17 = log X / 0.0400 - X
0.33 = log X / 0.0400 - X
X / 0.0400 - X = 2.14
X = 2.14 ( 0.0400 - X)
X = 0.0856 - 2.14 X
X+2.14 X = 0.0856
3.14 X = 0.0856
X = 0.0856 / 3.14 = 0.0273 moles.
ANSWER : Moles of NaOH added to 200 ml 0.2 M HF solution to produce solution of pH = 3.50 is 0.0273.
