Tartaric acid is a diprotic acid we can represent as H2T. Suppose a 100mL solution, which contains 0.1000M T2- is titrated with 0.2000M HCl. Ka1=6.21x10-5 and Ka2 = 2.22x10-8.
a) What is the initial pH of the T2- above? (before any HCl is added)
b) What is the pH after the addition of 100mL of 0.2000M HCl to the T2- above?
Please show all work!
a Ans.
The dissociation of tartaric occurs in two steps.
Consider the first step,
The ICE table is
H2T (aq) | H+(aq) | HT-(aq) | |
I | 0.1000M | 0 | 0 |
C | -x | +x | +x |
E | 0.1000-x | x | x |
The expression for Ka1 is
(The value of 0.1000-x is approximated to 0.1000 since the value of x is very less. You can check if the approximation is valid or not)
To check if the approximation is valid or not, calculate the percentage of x with respect to the initial tartaric concentration (because x is dissociated from tartaric). If the percentage is less than 5%, then the approximation is valid.
% which is less than 5%.
So, the approximation is valid.
Now, consider the second step
The ICE table is
HT- (aq) | H+ (aq) | T2- (aq) | |
I | 2.49 x 10-3M | 2.49 x 10-3M | 0 |
C | -y | +y | +y |
E | 2.49 x 10-3-y | 2.49 x 10-3+y | y |
SInce the dissociation constant is very low, the value of y in (2.49 x 10-3 + y) and (2.49 x 10-3 - y) is neglected. This approximation can be checked.
or
To check if the approximation is valid or not,
% which is less than 5%.
So, the approximation is valid.
The total [H+] is given by
pH is given by
Therefore, pH of the tartaric acid solution before the addition of HCl is 2.604

Solving for the pH in a mixture of acids is like dealing with a diprotic acid. You solve the problem by dealing with the acids in successive order. You start with the stronger acid (just like you start with the Ka1 because it is higher than the Ka2 for a diprotic). Afterward, you move on to the weaker acid. If a solution contains 0.014 M HCl and 0.100 M HF (Ka=6.6x10-4), what will be the pH of the solution?
