a. When a 20.0 mL sample of a 0.431 M aqueous nitrous acid solution is titrated with a 0.369 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, what is the pH at the midpoint in the titration?
b. A 26.4 mL sample of a 0.351 M aqueous nitrous acid solution is titrated with a 0.345 M aqueous potassium hydroxide solution. What is the pH at the start of the titration, before any potassium hydroxide has been added?
a)
Answer
pH = 3.40
Explanation
At the mid point of the titration between a weak acid and a strong base , the pH would be equal to the pKa of the weak acid.
Nitrous acid is weak acid and sodium hydroxide is a strong base
Therefore
At the mid point of titration between nitrous acid and sodium hydroxide is equal to pKa of nitous acid
pKa of nitrous acid = 3.398
pH at the point of the titration = 3.40
b)
Answer
pH = 1.93
Explanation
Dissociation equillibrium of HNO2 is
HNO2 (aq) + H2O(l) <-------> NO2-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Ka = [NO2-] [ H3O+] / [HNO2]
Initial concentration
[HNO2] = 0.351
[NO2-] = 0
[H3O+] = 0
change in concentration
[HNO2] = - x
[NO2-] = + x
[H3O+] = + x
Equilibrium concentration
[HNO2] = 0.351 - x
[ NO2-] = x
[H3O+] = x
pKa = -logKa
-logKa = 3.398
Ka = 4.00 × 10-4
x2/( 0.351 - x) = 4.00 ×10-4
solving for x
x = 0.01165
[H3O+] = 0.01165
pH = - log [H3O+]
pH = - log(0.01165)
pH = 1.93
