Question

A student peforms a titration, titrating 25.00 mL of a weak monoprotic acid, HA, with a 1.26 M solution of NaOH. They collect data, plot a titration curve and determine the values given in the below table.

  ml NaOH added pH
Half-way Point 17.99 3.90
Equivalence point 35.98 8.76
 



How many moles of NaOH have been added at the equivalence point?
_____ mol

 


What is the total volume of the solution at the equivalence point?
_____ mL

 




During the titration the following reaction occurs

      HA + NaOH ⇒ NaA + H2O

What is the concentration of A- (the conjugate base of the weak acid) at the equivalence point?
_____ M

 


Use [A-] and the pH at the equivalence point to estimate Ka of the weak acid (this is the hard way of estimating Ka)
 

 


Use the pH at the half-way point to estimate Ka of the weak acid (this is the easier way)
