To make 1.0 L of buffered solution of a 10.0 pH and a total [ ] of carbonate and hydrocarbonate is 0.10 M, how many grams of Na2CO3 and NaHCO3 are needed?
Carbonic acid Ka1 = 4.3 * 10-7 and Ka2 = 5.6 * 10-11
We have, pKa = - log Ka
pKa = - log
( 5.6
10
-11) = 10.25
pH of buffer solution is calculated by using Henderson's equation.
pH = pKa + log [ Na2CO3 ] / [ NaHCO3 ]
10.0 = 10.25 + log [ Na2CO3 ] / [ NaHCO3 ]
log [ Na2CO3 ] / [ NaHCO3 ] = 10.0 - 10.25 = - 0.25
[ Na2CO3 ] / [ NaHCO3 ] = 10 -0.25 = 0.562
[ Na2CO3 ] / [ NaHCO3 ] = 0.562
i e [ Na2CO3 ] = 0.562 [ NaHCO3 ] ---------------------->(1)
We have, [ Na2CO3 ] + [ NaHCO3 ] = 0.10 M
From equation 1 , we can write
0.562 [ NaHCO3 ] + [ NaHCO3 ] = 0.10
1.562 [ NaHCO3 ] = 0.10
[ NaHCO3 ] = 0.10 / 1.562
[ NaHCO3 ] =0.0640 M
[
Na2CO3 ] = 0.562 [ NaHCO3 ]
becomes [ Na2CO3 ] = 0.562 (
0.0640 ) = 0.0360 M
Volume of buffer solution = 1.0 L
We know that, Molarity = No. of moles of Solute / volume of solution in L
[
NaHCO3 ] = No. of moles of NaHCO3
/ volume of solution in L
0.0640 mol /
L = No. of moles of NaHCO3 / 1.0 L
No. of moles of NaHCO3 = 0.0640 mol / L
1.0 L = 0.0640
mol
No. of moles = Mass / Molar mass
Mass of
NaHCO3 = 0.0640 mol ( 84.00 g/ mol ) = 5.376 g
Calculation for Na2CO3
[ Na2CO3 ] =No. of moles of Na2CO3 / volume of solution in L
0.0360 mol /
L = No. of moles of Na2CO3 / 1.0 L
No. of moles of Na2CO3 = 0.0360 mol / L
1.0 L = 0.0360
mol
We know that, No. of moles = Mass / Molar mass
Mass of
Na2CO3= 0.0360 mol ( 105.99 g/ mol ) = 3.816
g
ANSWER : Mass of NaHCO3 = 5.376 g
Mass of Na2CO3= 3.816 g
