Calculate the pH and the concentration of all species present in equilibrium.
1.Calculate the concentration of methylammonium ions.
2.Calculate the concentration of methylamine in equilibrium.
Methylamine is CH3NH2
In aqueous solution it dissociates as
CH3NH2 + H2O CH3NH3+ + OH-
ICE table is
X is degree of dissociation
[CH3NH2] | [CH3NH3+] | [OH-] | |
Initial | C | 0 | 0 |
Change | - Cx | + Cx | +Cx |
Equilibrium | C-Cx | Cx | Cx |
Then, Kb = [CH3NH3+] [OH-]/[CH3NH2]
= [Cx*Cx/(C-Cx)]
Kb = Cx2/ (1-x)
As methyl amine is weak base , 1>>x
Kb = Cx2
Given , pKb = 3.34
Or, - logKb = 3.34
Then, Kb = 0.000457
Or, Cx2 = 0.000457
Or, X2 = (0.000457/C) = (0.000457/6*10-2) = 0.0076
Or, x = 0.087
Then, pOH = - log [OH-] = - log[Cx] = - log(6*10-2*0.087)
= -log(0.00522) = 2.282
Then pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 2.282 = 11.717
Concentration of methylammonium ions is [CH3NH3+] = [OH-] = 0.00522 M
and, concentration of methylamine in equilibrium is
[CH3NH2] = (C - Cx) = (6*10-2 - 0.00522) = 0.05478 M
