CHEM 1011 pH and Buffer Solutions
pH and Buffer Solutions Brønsted-Lowry Theory • Acid-proton donor • Base-proton acceptor
pH and Buffer Solutions For example, HCl + H2O ↔ H3O+ + Cl- For the forward reaction, • HCl – proton donor - acid • H2O – proton acceptor - base
pH and Buffer Solutions For example, HCl + H2O ↔ H3O+ + Cl- For the reverse reaction, • H3O+ – proton donor - acid • Cl- – proton acceptor - base
pH and Buffer Solutions According to Brønsted-Lowry Theory, every acid-base reaction creates conjugate acid-base pair.
pH and Buffer Solutions For example, HCl + H2O ↔ H3O+ + Cl- HCl - acid, Cl- - conjugate base H2O - base, H3O+ - conjugate acid
pH and Buffer Solutions Acids can be monoprotic, diprotic, or triprotic.
pH and Buffer Solutions • Monoprotic – donate one proton e.g., HCl, HNO3, HCOOH, CH3COOH HCl + H2O ↔ H3O+ + Cl- HNO3 + H2O ↔ H3O+ + NO3- HCOOH + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HCOO- CH3COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+ + CH3COO-
pH and Buffer Solutions • Diprotic – donate two protons e.g, H2SO4, H2CO3 H2SO4 + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HSO4- HSO4- + H2O ↔ H3O+ + SO42- H2CO3 + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HCO3- HCO3- + H2O ↔ H3O+ + CO32-
pH and Buffer Solutions • Triprotic – donate three protons e.g, H3PO4 H3PO4 + H2O ↔ H3O+ + H2PO4- H2PO4- + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HPO42- HPO42- + H2O ↔ H3O+ + PO43-
pH and Buffer Solutions Water can self ionize. H2O + H2O ↔ H3O+ + OH- [H3O+] = 1 x 10-7 moles/L [OH-] = 1 x 10-7 moles/L Kw = [H3O+] [OH-] = [1 x 10-7] [1 x 10-7] = 1 x 10-14
pH and Buffer Solutions • Kw same for all aqueous solutions. • Can calculate [OH-] for solution of strong acid. • e.g., 0.05 M HNO3 [H3O+] = 5 x 10-2 moles/L [OH-] = Kw / [H3O+] [OH-] = 1 x 10-14 / 5 x 10-2 = 2 x 10-13 mol/L
pH and Buffer Solutions • Can also calculate [H3O+] of solution of strong base. • e.g., 0.04 M NaOH [OH-] = 4 x 10-2 mol/L [H3O+] = Kw / [OH-] [H3O+] = 1 x 10-14 / 4 x 10-2 = 2.5 x 10-13
pH and Buffer Solutions • pH scale goes from 0 to 14 • pH < 7 acidic • pH = 7 neutral • pH > 7 basic
pH and Buffer Solutions • pH = - log [H3O+] • e.g., pH of 0.05 M HNO3 (a strong acid) pH = - log [5 x 10-2] = 1.12
pH and Buffer Solutions • The pOH of the solution of a strong base can also be calculated and used to determine pH. • e.g., 0.04 M NaOH pOH = -log[OH-] = -log[4 x 10-2] = 1.10 pH + pOH = pKw = 14 pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.10 = 12.9
pH and Buffer Solutions • You will use pH paper to measure the pHs of your solutions. Although a pH meter would yield more accurate results, it is unnecessary.
pH and Buffer Solutions Buffer solutions • Resist changes of pH following the addition of acid or base. • Combinations of weak acids and their conjugate bases.
pH and Buffer Solutions • Buffered aspirin • Blood buffers prevent acidosis and alkalosis. H2CO3 + H2O ↔ HCO3- + H3O+ H2PO4- + H2O ↔ HPO42- + H3O+
pH and Buffer Solutions • The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation can be used to calculate the pH of a buffer system. pH = pKa + log [A-] / [HA] • pH = pKa when [A-] = [HA] • Buffer activity continues as long as log [A-] / [HA] ratio kept constant
Conclusions and Calculations • Answer Post-Lab questions 1 and 3 based upon your observations (omit 2).
Conclusions and Calculations • For Post-Lab question 4, the HCl reacts with the CH3COO-, and the NaOH reacts with the H3O+ • An acetic acid-acetate buffer system would be represented by CH3COOH + H2O ↔ CH3COO- + H3O+
Conclusions and Calculations • For an acetic acid-acetate buffer system pH = pKa + log [CH3COO-] / [CH3COOH] pKa = [CH3COO-][H3O+] / [CH3COOH] = 4.75 pH = 4.75 + log [CH3COO-] / [CH3COOH] • Use this relationship when answering Pre-Lab question 5 and Post-Lab questions 5 a. and b.
Conclusions and Calculations • For Post-Lab questions 5 c. and d., H2CO3 + H2O ↔ HCO3- + H3O+ pH = pKa + log [HCO3-] / [H2CO3] pKa = [HCO3-][H3O+] / [H2CO3] = 6.37 pH = 6.37 + log [HCO3-] / [H2CO3]
