At 25 oC, Ammonia is a weak base that reacts with water according to this equation: NH3(aq) + H2O(aq) ⇌ NH4+(aq) + OH−(aq)
Briefly explain how the equilibrium will shift (to get back to equilibrium) if the following perturbations are made to the system:
(a) Addition of HCl
(b) Addition of NaOH
(c) Addition of NH4Cl
Water ionizes by the equation
H₂O(1)
H+ (aq) + OH- (aq)
The extent of the reaction is small in pure water and dilute aqueous solutions.
This reaction creates the following relationship between [H+] and [OH-]:
Kw = [H+][OH-]
Keep in mind that, like all equilibrium constants, the value of Kw changes with
temperature.
Acetic acid is a weak acid, meaning it does not fully dissociate in water. Instead, there is an equilibrium between the dissolved but undissociated molecule and the component ions:
HOAc (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ H3O+ (aq) + OAc– (aq)OAc– is an abbreviation for the acetate ion, CH3COO–, and H3O+ is the hydronium ion (lone protons, H+ (aq), do not exist!).
(d) When starting with completely un-dissociated acetic acid, is it accurate to assume that [HOAc]0 = [HOAc]eq? Why or why not?
(e) A highly concentrated acetic acid solution contains 15.0M acetic acid at equilibrium. What are the equilibrium concentrations of the hydronium and acetate ions in this solution?
(f) Creating the concentrated acetic acid solution by dissolving liquid HOAc in water raises the temperature of the water by about 5°C from room temperature. At 50°C, do you expect the solution to contain more or less acetate ion OAc– than what you calculated in (c)? Why?
