Calculate the pH at 25oC of the following aqueous salt solutions and indicate if they are basic, acidic, or neutral.
a) 0.020 M KClO4(aq)
b) 0.50 M NaCN(aq)
c) 0.80 M NH4ClO4(aq)
Show all work please!
In solution, KClO4dissociates completely to K+and ClO4- ,the ClO4-causes hydrolysis forming HClO4 and OH-
ClO4- + H2O HClO4 + OH-
therefore, we need the Kb of ClO4-
the Kb of HClO4 = 1 x 10-21
Kb = [HClO4] [OH-] / [ClO4-]
1 x 10-21 = x2 / (0.02 - x)
1 x 10-21 = x2 (0.02
x2 = 2 x 10-23
x = 4.4 x 10-12
[OH-] = x = 4.4 x 10-12 M
pOH = -log (4.4 x 10-12) = 11.36
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 11.36 = 2.64 (Acidic)
(b)
CN- + H2O
HCN + OH-
Kb = [HCN] [OH-] / [CN-] = 2.1 x 10^-5
Let
[HCH] = s
[OH-] = s
so, [CN-] = 0.5 - s
2.1 x 10-5 = (s)(s) / (0.5 - s)
Assume s << 0.011
2.1 x 10-5 = (s)(s) / (0.5)
s2 = 1.05 x 10-5
s = 3.24 x 10-3 M
[OH-] =s = 3.24 x 10-3 M
pOH = - log (3.24 x 10-3) = 2.49
pH + pOH = 14.00
pH = 14.00 - pOH = 14.00 - 2.49 = 11.51 (Basic)
(c)
NH4ClO4
NH4+ + ClO4-
Now in a water solution,
ClO4- + H2O
HClO4 + OH- (This doesn't happen because
HClO4 is a strong acid. Therefore the only contribution
to the pH is from the NH4+.
NH4+
NH3 + H+
IC 0.80 0 0
EC 0.80-x x x
Ka = Kw/Kb = (1 x 10-14) / (1.8 x 10-5) = 5.5 x 10-10
Ka = [NH3] [H+] / [NH4+]
5.5 x 10-10 = (x)(x)/(0.80-x)
5.5 x 10-10 = x2 /0.80 (Assume x << 0.80)
x2 = 4.4 x 10-10
x = 2.1 x 10-5
[H+] = x = 2.1 x 10-5
pH = -log(2.1 x 10-5) = 4.68 (Acidic)
