9. You have been observing an insect that defends itself from enemies by secreting a caustic liquid. Analysis of theliquid shows it to have a total concentration of formate plus formic acid (Ka 1.8 x 10-4) of 1.45 M; the concentration of formate ion is 0.015 M. What is the pH of the secretion?
4)
H3PO4 (aq) + H2O (l) <------> H2PO4- (aq) + H3O+ (aq) Ka1
H2PO4- (aq) + H2O (l) <------> HPO42- (aq) + H3O+ (aq) Ka2
HPO42- (aq) + H2O (l) <------> PO43- (aq) + H3O+ (aq) Ka3
Ka2 contains HPO42- and H2PO4-
Hence, pka2 is relevant here.
pH = pKa2 + log { [base]/[acid]}
Then,
pH = pKa2 + log {[HPO42-]/[H2PO4-]}
Given that pH = 7.0 , pKa2 = 6.86
Then,
7.0 = 6.86 + log {[HPO42-]/[H2PO4-]}
log {[HPO42-]/[H2PO4-]} = 0.14
[HPO42-]/[H2PO4-] = 100.14
= 1.38
Therefore,
Molar ratio of HPO42- to H2PO4- = 1.38
