Find the pH of a 0.008 M solution of an aluminum compound which dissolves completely to give the hydrated aluminum ion Al(H2O)3+6.
Al(H2O)3+6(aq)+H2O(l)⇌H3O+(aq)+Al(H2O)5(OH)2+(aq), Ka=1.4×10−5
Given:-
molar concentration of [Al(H2O)6]3+ = 0.008 M
equilibrium constant of [Al(H2O)6]3+ = 1.4 10-5
As we know that 0.008 M solution of aluminum compound dissolves completely to give the hydrated aluminum ion i.e [Al(H2O)6]3+ then molar concentration of [Al(H2O)6]3+ would be 0.008 M and then equilibrium established between [Al(H2O)6]3+ and solution of aluminum compound i.e[Al(H2O)5 (OH)]2+ which is given as follows:-
[Al(H2O)6]3+ + H2O(l) [Al(H2O)5 (OH)]2+(aq) + H3O+(aq)
0.008 M 0 0
(0.008 - X) X X
As we know that
equilibrium constant of [Al(H2O)6]3+ (Ka) = [ [Al(H2O)5 (OH)]2+ ][H3O+] / [ [Al(H2O)6]3+ ][H2O]
equilibrium constant of [Al(H2O)6]3+ (Ka) =X X / (0.008 - X) 1 ( since [H2O] = 1)
neglecting the X in denominator in above expression then we get
equilibrium constant of [Al(H2O)6]3+ (Ka) = X2 / 0.008
1.4 10-5 = X2 / 0.008
X2 = 0.008 1.4 10-5
X2 = 0.0112 10-5
X2 = 11.2 10-8
X = 11.2 10-8
X = 3.3466 10-4
therefore
molar concentration of [H3O+] = 3.3466 10-4
molar concentration of [ [Al(H2O)5 (OH)]2+ ]= 3.3466 10-4
As we know that
pH = - log[H3O+]
pH = - log[3.3466 10-4 ]
pH = - [log(3.3466) + ( -4log(10) ]
pH = - [(0.5246) - ( 4) ]
pH = 4.0000 - 0.5246
pH = 3.4754 (i.e the answer)
