Repeat the procedure in Exercise 61, but for the titration of 25.0 mL of 0.100 M pyridine with 0.100 M hydrochloric acid (Kb for pyridine is 1.7 109). Do not calculate the points at 24.9 and 25.1 mL.
Malonic acid (HO2CCH2CO2H) is a diprotic acid. In the titration of malonic acid w ith NaOH, stoichiometric points occur at pH = 3.9 and 8.8. A 25.00-mL sample of malonic acid of unknown concentration is titrated with 0.0984 M NaOH, requiring 31.50 mL of the NaOH solution to reach the phenolphthalein end point. Calculate the concentration of the initial malonic acid solution. (Sec Exercise 113.)
Sketch a titration curve for the titration of potassium hydroxide with HCl, both 0.100 M. Identify three regions in which a particular chemical species or system dominates the acid-base equilibria.
Which of the indicators in Fig. 14-8 could be used for the titrations in Exercises 61 and 63?
A sodium hydrogen carbonate-sodium carbonate buffer is to be prepared with a pH of 9.40. (a) What must the [ HCO3 ]/[ CO32 ]ratio be? (b) How many moles of sodium hydrogen carbonate must be added to a liter of 0.225 M Na2CO3 to give this pH? (c) How many grams of sodium carbonate must be added to 475 mL of 0.336 M NaHCO3 to give this pH? (Assume no volume change.) (d) What volume of 0.200 M NaHCO3 must be added to 735 mL of a 0.139 M solution of Na2CO3 to give this pH? (Assume that volumes are additive.)
What is an acidbase indicator? Define the equivalence (stoichiometric) point and the end point of a titration. Why should you choose an indicator so that the two points coincide? Do the pH values of the two points have to be within 0.01 pH unit of each other? Explain.
