Calculate the pH of a solution containing 2.5 x 10– 2 mol of nicotinic acid (a monoprotic acid) dissolved in 350 mL of water. ( Ka = 1.1 x 10- 5). The answer is 3.05. Please Help
Let write the acid as HA
[HA] = mol / volume in L
= 2.5*10^-2 mol / 0.350 L
= 0.0714 M
HA dissociates as:
HA -----> H+ + A-
7.14*10^-2 0 0
7.14*10^-2-x x x
Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA]
Ka = x*x/(c-x)
Assuming x can be ignored as compared to c
So, above expression becomes
Ka = x*x/(c)
so, x = sqrt (Ka*c)
x = sqrt ((1.1*10^-5)*7.14*10^-2) = 8.862*10^-4
since x is comparable c, our assumption is not correct
we need to solve this using Quadratic equation
Ka = x*x/(c-x)
1.1*10^-5 = x^2/(7.14*10^-2-x)
7.854*10^-7 - 1.1*10^-5 *x = x^2
x^2 + 1.1*10^-5 *x-7.854*10^-7 = 0
This is quadratic equation (ax^2+bx+c=0)
a = 1
b = 1.1*10^-5
c = -7.854*10^-7
Roots can be found by
x = {-b + sqrt(b^2-4*a*c)}/2a
x = {-b - sqrt(b^2-4*a*c)}/2a
b^2-4*a*c = 3.142*10^-6
roots are :
x = 8.807*10^-4 and x = -8.917*10^-4
since x can't be negative, the possible value of x is
x = 8.807*10^-4
So, [H+] = x = 8.807*10^-4 M
use:
pH = -log [H+]
= -log (8.807*10^-4)
= 3.05
