1 CH102 Summer Boston University An acid base region is a circumstance not a sequence of operations Region 1: Only weak acid (base) Region 2: Both weak acid (base) and its conjugate base (acid) Region 3: Only conjugate of weak acid (base) Region 4: Strong base (acid), no matter what else For each of these circumstances it does not matter how they arise 2 1

2 Region 1: Strong acid only HA H 3 O + A Initial c a Revised initial, K a > c a c a c a Change + x x x Equilibrium x c a x c a c a x c a c a c a because K a > K w c a x c a because K a > 1 (HA) = x c a2 /K a 3 Region 1: Strong acid only example K a of HA is 1 x What is the ph and (HA) in M HA? (H 3 O + ) = c a = ph = 3.0 (HA) = x = c a2 /K a = (0.001) 2 /(1 x ) = 1 x 10 12!!! 4 2

3 Region 1: Weak acid only HA H 3 O + A Initial c a Change x + x + x Equilibrium c a x c a x x x x x because K a > K w c a x c a because 1 > K a (H 3 O + ) = x (K a c a ) 5 Region 1: Weak acid only example K a of HA is 1 x 10 7 What is the ph of M HA? (H 3 O + ) = (K a c a ) = (1 x ) = 1 x 10 5 ph =

4 Region 2: Partially neutralized HA H 3 O + A Initial c a 10 7 c b Change x + x + x Equilibrium c a x c a x x c b + x c b x x because K a > K w c a x c a and c b + x c b because 1 > K a (H 3 O + ) = x K a (c a /c b ) = K a (mol a /mol b ) 7 Region 2: Partially neutralized example K a of HA is 1 x L each of M HA and M NaOH are combined. What is the ph? mol a = mol, mol b = mol (H 3 O + ) = x = K a (mol a /mol b ) = 2 x 10 6 ph = =

5 Region 3: Equivalence point H 2 O(l) + A (aq) HA(aq) + OH (aq) A HA OH Initial c b Change x + x + x Equilibrium c b x c b x x x x x because K b = K w /K a >> K w c b x c b because 1 >> K b (OH ) = x (K b c b ) 9 Region 3: Equivalence point example H 2 O(l) + A (aq) HA(aq) + OH (aq) K a of HA is 1 x L each of M HA and M NaOH are combined. What is the ph? c b = mol/(2 L) = M K b = K w /K a = 1 x 10 7 (OH ) = (K b c b ) = (1 x ) = 1 x 10 5 poh = 5.0 ph =

6 Region 4: Beyond equivalence example H 2 O(l) + A (aq) HA(aq) + OH (aq) K a of HA is 1 x L each of M HA and M NaOH are combined. What is the ph? (OH ) = mol/(2 L) = M poh = = 3.3 ph = Buffers resist change in ph 12 6

7 Buffers resist change in ph Let s see what causes these changes in ph to be so drastic in pure water, but so muted in a buffer. 13 Buffers resist change in ph Added strong base (say, OH ) is gobbled up HA(aq) + OH (aq) H 2 O(l) + A (aq) c a lowered, c b raised, c a /c b lowered Added strong acid (say, HCl) is gobbled up HCl(aq) + A (aq) HA(aq) + Cl (aq) c b lowered, c a raised, c a /c b raised 14 7

8 Add strong base to buffer 1 L buffer, c a = c b = 1.00 M, K a = 1 x 10 5, ph = 5.00 Add 100. ml of M NaOH HA(aq) + OH (aq) H 2 O(l) + A (aq) HA 1.00 mol mol = 0.99 mol A 1.00 mol mol = 1.01 mol c a = 0.99 mol/1.10 L, c b = 1.01 mol/1.10 L c a /c b = /1.01, ph 5.01 (tiny change!) 15 Add strong acid to buffer 1 L buffer, c a = c b = 1.00 M, K a = 1 x 10 5, ph = 5.00 Add 100. ml of M HCl HCl(aq) + A (aq) HA(aq) + Cl (aq) HA 1.00 mol mol = 1.01 mol A 1.00 mol mol = 0.99 mol c a = 1.01 mol/1.10 L, c b = 0.99 mol/1.10 L c a /c b = /0.99, ph 4.99 (tiny change!) 16 8

9 Add strong acid/base to water 1 L of water, K a = 1 x 10 14, ph = 7.00 Add 100. ml of M HCl (H 3 O + ) = mol/1.10 L = ph = 2.04 (huge change!) Add 100. ml of M NaOH (OH ) = mol/1.10 L = poh = 2.04, ph = (huge change!) 17 Buffers resist change in ph 18 9
