A buffer solution contains 0.384 M
hydrofluoric acid and 0.460 M
sodium fluoride.
If 0.0183 moles of nitric acid
are added to 125 mL of this buffer, what is the pH
of the resulting solution ?
(Assume that the volume change does not change upon adding
nitric acid)
pH = ????
mol of HNO3 added = 0.0183 mol
F- will react with H+ to form HF
Before Reaction:
mol of F- = 0.46 M *0.125 L
mol of F- = 0.0575 mol
mol of HF = 0.384 M *0.125 L
mol of HF = 0.048 mol
after reaction,
mol of F- = mol present initially - mol added
mol of F- = (0.0575 - 0.0183) mol
mol of F- = 0.0392 mol
mol of HF = mol present initially + mol added
mol of HF = (0.048 + 0.0183) mol
mol of HF = 0.0663 mol
Ka = 6.6*10^-4
pKa = - log (Ka)
= - log(6.6*10^-4)
= 3.18
since volume is both in numerator and denominator, we can use mol instead of concentration
use:
pH = pKa + log {[conjugate base]/[acid]}
= 3.18+ log {3.92*10^-2/6.63*10^-2}
= 2.952
Answer: 2.95
