Explanation:

1) Acetic acid

Concentration is given as 0.103 M

The average pH of this solution = 2.96

we know that pH = - log [H+] therefore [H+] = 10-pH

[H+] = 10-2.96

= 1.1 x 10-3 M = 0.0011 M

Consider the equilibrium

CH3COOH ⇄CH3COO- + H+

Initial 0.103 0 0

Change -x +x +x

equlibrium 0.103 -x x x

Ka = x2 / 0.103 - x

Here the initial concentration of CH3COOH = 0.103 M

the equilibrium concentration of H+ = x = 0.0011 M

Therefore the equilibrium conc of acetic acid = 0.103 - 0.0011 = 0.1019 M

Therefore Ka = 0.0011 x 0.0011 / 0.1019 = 1.187 x 10-5

2) Acetic acid + NaOH

pH measured = 4.48 , therefore [H+} = 10-4.48 = 3.3 x 10-5

Volume and conc of acetic acid = 10 mL of 0.103 M

= 10 mL x 0.103 mmol / mL

= 1.03 mmol

Volume and conc of NaOH added = 4 mL of 0.0992 M

= 4 x 0.0992 mmol

= 0.397 mmol

Consider the equation

CH3COOH + NaOH > CH3COONa + H2O

Initial 1.03 0.397 0

Final 0.633 0 0.397

0.397 mmole of NaOH will convert 0.397 mmole of acetic acid to sodium acetate.

Thus the final moles of acetic acid and sodium acetate in the solution are 0.633 and 0.397

therefore [salt] / [acid] = 0.397 / 0.633 = 0.627

By Hendersen equation pH = pKa + log[salt / acid]

pH = pKa + log 0.627 = pKa - 0.203

or pKa = pH + 0.203 = 4.48 + 0.203 [ since the measured pH = 4.48]

= 4.683

Ka = 10-4.683 = 2.07 x 10-5

3) Phosphate salts:

(i) mass of NaH2PO4 taken = 0.613 g

molar mass of NaH2PO4 = 120

therefore moles = 0.613 / 120 = 0.0051 mole

= 5.1 mmol

The volume is 30 mL therefore concentration = 5.1 /30 mmol/mL

= 0.17 M

consider the equilibrium

H2PO4-⇄ HPO42- + H+

Initial 0.17 0 0

Change -x +x + x

equilibrium 0.17-x x x

Ka = x2 / 0.17-x = 6.2 x 10-8 [ Ka is given]

neglect x in the denominator as it is very small x2 = 0.17 x 6.2 x 10-8

x =  1.03 x 10-4

Thus the equilirium conc of H+ = 1.03 x 10-4 therefore pH = - log 1.03 x 10-4 = 3.99

(ii) Mass of Na2HPO4.7H2O =0.601 g

therefore no of moles = 0.601 / 268.07 = 0.00224 mole

= 2.24 mmol

The volume = 30 mL , therefore conc = 2.24 / 30 mmol/ml

= 0.075 M

consider the equilibrium

HPO42- ⇄ PO43- + H+

Initial 0.075 0 0

Change -x +x + x

equilibrium 0.075-x x x

Ka = x2 / 0.075-x = 4.8 x 10-13 [ Ka is given]

neglect x in the denominator as it is very small x2 = 0.075 x 4.8 x 10-13

x =  1.9 x 10-7

Thus the equilirium conce of H+ = 1.9 x 10-7 therefore pH = - log 1.9 x 10-7 = 6.7

(iii) Mass of Na3PO4.12H2O taken = 0.208 g

moles of trisodiumphosphate 0.208/ 380 = 0.00055 moles

= 0.55 mmol

Volume = 10 mL therefore conc = 0.55/10 = 0.055 mmol/mL

= 0.055 M

Consider the equilibrium reaction

PO43- + H2O  ⇄ HPO42- + OH-

initial 0.055 0 0

Change -x +x +x

equilibrium 0.055-x x x

Kb = x2/ 0.055 -x = 0.0208 [Kb = Kw / Ka = 10-14 / 4.8 x 10-13 = 0.0208]

x2 + 0.0208x - 0.001144 = 0 Solving this equation we get x = 0.025

That is the conce of OH- ion = 0.025M

Therefore pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.6 =12.4
