A buffer contains 0.010 mol of lactic acid and 0.050 mol of sodium lactate per liter. (a) calculate the pH of the buffer. (b) calculate the pH when 100ml of 0.02 M NaOH is added to 500mL of the buffer. (c) What pH would you expect if you added the same quantity of NaOH to 500mL of pure water?
pH of acid buffer using Hendersson-Hasselbalch equstion is
pH =pKa + log(moles of sodium lactate)/(moles of lactic acid)
pKa of lactic acid = 3.86
So, pH = 3.86+ log(0.050/0.010)
Or, pH = 3.86 + 0.698= 4.558.
b)
When NaOH is added it reacts with lactic acid (HA) to form sodium lactate (NaA).
moles of NaOH = (100*0.02)/1000 = 0.002
BCA table is
HA | NaOH | NaA | |
Before | 0.010 | 0.002 | 0.050 |
Change | -0.002 | -0.002 | +0.002 |
After | 0.008 | 0 | 0.052 |
Now new pH is
pH = pKa + log(0.052/0.008)
= 3.86 + 0.813
= 4.673.
C)
Moles of NaOH = 100*0.02 = 0.002
When added to 500 mL water
New volume of solution = ( 500 +100 ) = 600 mL = 0.6 L.
Molar concentration of NaOH = (0.002/0.6) = 0.00333 M
Now, pOH = - log[OH-] = - log (0.00333) = 2.48
Now expected pH of the solution will be
Or, pH = 14 - 2.48 = 11.52.
