Group No. 2
1. Given the values of the following substances, fill in the Table below: (15 pts.)
Sample pH [H+] [OH-] pOH
2. A solution was prepared by dissolving 0.02 moles of acetic acid (HOAc; pKa = 4.8) in water to give 1
liter of solution. What is the pH of this solution? (5 pts.)
HOAc H3O+
OAc-
Initial 0.02 M 0 0
Change -x x x
Equilibrium 0.02M - x x x
Step 3. Solve Ka expression
3. To this solution obtained in #2, it was then added with 0.008 moles of concentrated sodium hydroxide
(NaOH).
a. What is the amount (in number of moles) acetic acid that has reacted to the added NaOH? (3pts.)
b. Write is the chemical reaction that has taken place upon the addition of NaOH? (3 pts.)
Chemical reaction:
HOAc(aq) + NAOH(aq) NAOAc + H2O(l)
HOAc(aq) + NA+(aq) + OH-(aq) NA+(aq) + OAc-(aq) + H2O(l)
HOAc(aq) + OH-(aq) OAc+(aq) + H2O(l)
c. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of acetic acid (HOAc), H3O+, OAc- (acetate) as defined
in Table 2 below after the addition of NaOH:
Table 2. Equilibrium concentrations of the species after the addition of NaOH. (1 point each)
d. What is the new pH of the solution? (In this problem, you may ignore changes in volume due to
the addition of NaOH). 5 pts.

pH = pKa + log
[HOAc]
[0.008]
pH = pKa + log
[0.012]
pH = 4.8 + log [0.67]
pH = 4.8 + log [-0.17]
pH = 4.63
4. A buffer was prepared by mixing 1.00 mole of ammonia (NH3) and 1.00 mole of ammonium chloride
(NH4Cl) to form an aqueous solution with a total volume of 1.00 liter.
Kb (NH3) = 1.75 x 10-5
b. To 500 mL of the buffer solution in # 4 was added 30.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH. What is the pH of this
solution? Show your calculations. (5 pts.)
c. To 500 mL of the buffer solution in # 4 was added 30.0 mL of 1.00 M HCl. What is the pH of this
solution? Show your calculations. (5 pts.)
GIVEN: 500 mL (0.5L)
30.0 mL (0.03 L) of 1 M NaOH
Step 1.
Mol HCl = (1.00)(0.03L) = 0.03 Step 3. Step 4.
