A titration of 200.0 mL of 1.00 M H2A was done with 1.38 M NaOH. For the diprotic acid H2A, Ka1 = 2.5  10–5, Ka2 = 3.1  10–9. Calculate the pH after 100.0 mL of 1.38 M NaOH have been added.

Answer:

4.95

Explanation:

1.00 M H2A

1.38 m NaOH

Titration = 200.0 mL

Calculate moles of NaOH

= [tex]\frac{100*1.38}{300}[/tex]  = 0.46

calculate moles of H2A

= [tex]\frac{200 * 1.0}{300}[/tex] = 0.667

therefore the moles of acid left = moles of H2A - moles of NaOH

                                                    = 0.667 - 0.46 = 0.207

pka = - log( ka )

       = - log ( 2.5 * 10^-5 ) = 4.61

calculate PH after 100 ml of 1.38 M NaOH have been added

PH = pka + log [tex](\frac{salt}{acid} )[/tex]

     = 4.61 + log [tex](\frac{0.46}{0.207} )[/tex] = 4.95
