(a)
Given:
Ka = 2.1*10-5, so pKa = -log(Ka) = 4.67
Using the following equation:
pH = pKa + log(moles of salt/moles of acid)
After addition of HCl, net moles of acid increase and moles of salt decrease.
So, at equilibrium:
moles of acid = 0.015 + 0.017 = 0.032
moles of salt = 0.039 - 0.017 = 0.022
Putting values in the above equation, we get:
pH = 4.67 + log(0.022/0.032) = 4.5
(b)
For the diprotic acid, the second dissociation constant is almost negligible, so the [HOOCCOOH] dissociates into the solution almost completely through the first reaction.
Consider the reaction below:
H2C2O4 ----> H+ + HC2O4-
Initial 0.15 0 0
Eqb 0.15-x x x
Ka1 = ([H+][HC2O4-]) / [H2C2O4] = x2/(0.15-x) = 0.056
Solving above equation, we get:
x = 0.0678
So, at eqb.,
[HOOCCOOH] = 0.15 - 0.0678 = 0.0822 M
