Chemistry Question on Equilibrium
2.5 ml of . 52 M weak monoacidic base (Kp=1×10−12at25∘ C) is titrated with 152 M HCI in water at 25∘ C. The concentration of H ' at equivalence point is (Ksp=1×10−14at25∘C)
A
3.7×10−13 M
B
3.2×10−7 M
C
3.2×10−2 M
D
2.7×10−2 M
Answer
2.7×10−2 M
Explanation
Solution
mmol of base = 2.5 ×52=1
mmol of acid required to reach the end point = 1
Volume of acid required to reach the end point = 215
Total volume at the end point = 215+2.5=10 ml.
Molarity of salt at the end point = 01=−.1−

\ B^+ + \ \ \ \ \ H_2 O \rightleftharpoons BOH + \ \ \ \ \ H^ + \\\
C ( 1 - \alpha ) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ C \alpha \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ C \alpha\\\

Kh=KbKw=10−2
10⇒α2+α−1=0
⇒α=20−1+1+30=0.27
⇒[H+]=Cα=0.1×0.27=0.027M
