A 0.10 M pyridine solution has a pH of 5.87. To the nearest hundredth of a unit, what is the ratio of pyridinium ions (pKa = 5.3) to neutral pyridine molecules at this pH?
A 0.10 M pyridine solution has a pH of 5.99. To the nearest hundredth of a unit, what fraction of the molecules are in the neutral form? (The pKa of the pyridinium ion is 5.3.)
1.We can use Henderson Hasselbalch equation to find the required ratio
Given ,
pH = 5.87
pKa =5.3
We have to find the ratio [pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine] i.e [Acid] / [Base]
Using Henderson Hasselbalch equation,
pH = pKa - log{ [Acid] / [Base]}
Plugging the values in the above equation
5.87 = 5.3 - log{ [pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine]}
log{ [pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine]} = 5.3- 5.87 = -0.57
{ [pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine]} = 10(-0.57) =0.2692
Therefore, the ratio, [pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine] = 0.2692
2. Given ,
pH = 5.99
pKa =5.3
Using Henderson Hasselbalch equation,
pH = pKa - log{ [Acid] / [Base]}
Plugging the values in the above equation,
5.99 = 5.3 - log{ [pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine]}
log{ [pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine]} = 5.3- 5.99 = -0.69
[pyridinium ions ] / [pyridine] = 10(-0.69) = 0.20418
[pyridinium ions ] = 0.20418 [pyridine]
Let [pyridine] be x,
then [pyridinium ions ] = 0.20418 x
Now, concentration of pyridine solution = 0.10 M
Therefore,
[pyridine] + [pyridinium ions ] = 0.10 M
x + 0.20418 x = 0.10 M
1.20418 x = 0.10 M
x =0.083 M
Therefore, concentration of neutral pyridine molecules = 0.083 M
Fraction of neutral pyridine molecules = concentration of neutral pyridine molecules / concentration of pyridine solution
= 0.083 M / 0.1 M
= 0.83

To the nearest 0.01 unit, what is the pH of a buffer solution consisting of 0.10 M NaOCN and 0.05 M HOCN if the pKa of HOCN is 3.48. using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation; I know the answer is 3.78 I'm just confused on how to set up the problem
What concentrations of acetic acid (pKa=4.76)(pKa=4.76) and acetate would be required to prepare a 0.10 M0.10 M buffer solution at pH 4.6pH 4.6? Note that the concentration, pH value, or both may differ from that in the first question. Strategy Rearrange the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation to solve for the ratio of base (acetate) to acid (acetic acid), [A−]/[HA][A−]/[HA] . Use the mole fraction of acetate to calculate the concentration of acetate. Calculate the concentration of acetic acid. Step 1: The ratio...
2nd part only the pH is correct.
Metal ions in aqueous solutions are solvated, or hydrated, by water molecules. Typically this primary hydration sphere is composed of six water molecules. The hydrated metal ion acts as a weak acid, undergoing a stepwise hydrolysis in which it donates an Htion from its water ligands to the surrounding free water molecules. Shown is the hydrolysis of Al(H,0) (pKA = 4.85) in water. Al(H,0)(aq) + H20(1) - 1,0+ (aq) + Al( HO), OH...
