Chapter 15, Problem 123QRT
You are given four different aqueous solutions and told that they each contain NaOH, Na2CO3, NaHCO3, or a mixture of these solutes. You do some experiments and gather these data about the samples.
Sample A: Phenolphthalein is colorless in the solution.
Sample B: The sample was titrated with HCl until the pink color of phenolphthalein disappeared, then methyl orange was added. The solution became pink. Methyl orange changes color from pH 3.01 (red) to pH 4.4 (orange).
Sample C: Equal volumes of the sample were titrated with standardized acid. Using phenolphthalein as an indicator required 15.26 mL of standardized acid to change the phenolphthalein color. The other sample required 17.90 mL for a color change using methyl orange as the indicator.
Sample D: Two equal volumes of the sample were titrated with standardized HCl. Using phenolphthalein as the indicator, it took 15.00 mL of acid to reach the equivalence point; using methyl orange as the indicator required 30.00 mL HCl to achieve neutralization.
Identify the solute in each of the solutions.

1. You are taking samples at a contaminated mine site from a carbonate aquifer to determine the concentration of dissolved lead in the sample. To preserve the sample, you acidify it to pH 5. How much HCl, in equivalents/L, must be added to this sample to make it pH 5 if the total carbonate concentration is 102 M and the initial pH is 10? Note that the total carbonate is the sum of all of the carbonate species ([H2CO3]+[HCO3] + [CO2]) present in the sample. What are the acid-base pairs responsible for buffering in this sample?
A 0.735 g sample of wheat flour was analyzed by the Kjeldahl method. The ammonia formed by addition of concentrated base after digestion with H2SO4 was distilled into 50 mL of 0.10 M HCl. The excess HCl was then back titrated with 22.3 mL of 0.15 M NaOH. Calculate the percent protein in the wheat flour sample (6.25 g of cereal protein for every g of N).
Calculate the pH of the solution (CH3COOH → CH3COO + H+ pka = 4.80 at 25 °C).
a) Suppose 1.00 mol of CH3COOH and 0.500 mol of CH3COONa are added to water and diluted
to 1.00 L. Calculate the pH of this buffer solution.
b) Suppose 0.10 mol of a strong acid such as HCI is added to the buffer solution. Calculate the
pH of the resulting solution.

- Apatite, Ca5(PO4)3OH, is the mineral in teeth. On a chemical basis explain why drinking milk strengthens young children’s teeth. Sour milk contains lactic acid. Not removing sour milk from the teeth of young children can lead to tooth decay. Use chemical principles to explain why.arrow_forwardYou have a 18 mL sample of acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter) with an unknown concentration and a pH of 7.82. You incubate this sample with the enzyme acetylcholinesterase to convert all of the acetylcholine to choline and acetic acid. The acetic acid dissociates to yield acetate and hydrogen ions. At the end of the incubation period, you measure the pH again and find that it has decreased to 5.66. Assuming there was no buffer in the assay mixture, determine the number of nanomoles of acetylcholine in the original 18 mL sample. Tip: your answer should have two significant digits!
