What is the ph of a 3.40 mm of acetic acid, 500 ml in which 50 ml of 1.00 m naoac has been added? ka hoac is 1.8 x 10-5? what percentage of the acid is dissociated?

a) pH = 4.213

b) % dis = 2 %

Explanation:

Ch3COONa → CH3COO- + Na+

CH3COOH ↔ CH3COO- + H3O+

∴ Ka = 1.8 E-5 = ([ CH3COO- ] * [ H3O+ ]) / [ CH3COOH ]

mass balance:

⇒ C CH3COOH + C CH3COONa = [ CH3COOH ] + [ CH3COO- ]

∴ C CH3COOH = 3.40 mM = 3.4 mmol/mL * ( mol/1000mmol)*(1000mL/L)

∴ C CH3COONa = 1.00 M = 1.00 mol/L = 1.00 mmol/mL

⇒ [ CH3COOH ] = 4.4 - [ CH3COO- ]

charge balance:

⇒ [ H3O+ ] + [ Na+ ] = [ CH3COO- ] + [ OH- ]is negligible [ OH-], comes from water

⇒ [ CH3COO- ] = [ H3O+ ] + 1.00

⇒ Ka = (( [ H3O+ ] + 1 )* [ H3O+ ]) / ( 3.4 - [ H3O+])) = 1.8 E-5

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + [ H3O+ ] = 6.12 E-5 - 1.8 E-5 [ H3O+ ]

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + [ H3O+ ] - 6.12 E-5 = 0

⇒  [ H3O+ ] = 6.12 E-5 M

⇒ pH = - Log [ H3O+ ] = 4.213

b) (% dis)* mol acid = C CH3COOH = 3.4

∴ mol CH3COOH = 500*3.4 = 1700 mmol = 1.7 mol

⇒ % dis = 3.4 / 1.7 = 2 %
