A 10.0 mL sample of 0.75 M CH3CH2COOH(aq) is titrated with 0.30 M NaOH(aq) (adding NaOH to CH3CH2COOH). Determine which region on the titration curve the mixture produced is in, and the pH of the mixture at each volume of added base. Ka of CH3CH2COOH is 1.3 \times× 10−5.

5.75

Explanation:

Weak acid and strong base,

Make it a two part problem

The first will be Partial neutralization of the weak acid, while the second is the equilibrium and final pH

1.Parameters

HC2H3O2 =10mL x 0.75M = 7.5 mmol

NaOH =22mL x 0.30M = 6.6 mmol

R HC2H3O2 + OH- --> C2H3O2- + H2O

I 7.5 mmol 6.6 mmol 0 mmol ignore

C -6.6 mmol -6.6 mmol +6.6 mmol

E 0.9 mmol 0.0 mmol 6.6 mmol

2.) HC2H3O2 --> H+ + C2H3O2-

Initial concentrations

[HC2H3O2]: 0.9 mmol / 32mL = 0.0281M

[H+]:

[C2H3O2-]: 6.6 mmol x 32mL = 0.206M

Concentrations at equilibrium

[HC2H3O2]: 0.0281M - x

[H+]: [C2H3O2-]: 0.206M + x

If x is small and can be ignored except [H+]

Substitute and solve

1.3 x 10-5 = (x)(0.206)

(0.0281)

X= 1.77 x 10-6M => pH = 5.75

i don,t know so just answer mine
