Chemistry 122 (General College Chemistry I)-‐ Fall 2018 Discussion Worksheet Week 14 (Coordinated by Dr. R. Hatfield)
Topics: Acid-‐Case Titration Curves: strong acid-‐strong base, weak acid-‐strong base, weak base-‐strong acid; pH indicators, titration curves for polyprotic acids Relevant Chapters in Silberberg, 8e: Chapter 19 Section 2, pp. 853-‐864. Student Directions: Try all problems with your best effort and bring your work to discussion. Use your text as a resource for any constants or relationships needed. You will have to work ahead. When topics are completely covered in lecture, go back and redo any problems you did not understand. Thursday and Friday Discussion Sessions Special Instructions: Remember to turn in both week 13 and 14 worksheets during week 14 discussion for credit.
1. Define the following terms in an acid-‐base titration:
a. equivalence point
b. endpoint
2. Strong base-‐titrated with strong acid. Without doing any detailed calculations, sketch the curve for the titration of 30.0 mL of 0.10 M NaOH with 0.1 M HCl. Indicate the approximate pH (a) at the start of the titration and (b) at the equivalence point. What is the total solution volume at the equivalence point? [ a. 13.0; b. 7.0; c. 60 mL]
3. Strong acid-‐titrated with strong base. Suppose the titration was reversed in question 2. If you titrated 30.0 mL of 0.1 M HCl with 0.1 M NaOH, indicate the approximate pH (a) at the start of the titration and (b) at the equivalence point. (c) What is the total volume of solution at the equivalence point? Add this curve to your sketch in question 2. [a. 1.0; b. 7.0; c. 60 mL]

4. Find the pH during the titration of 20.00 mL of 0.1000 M formic acid, HCOOH (K! = 1.8 x 10-‐4), with 0.1000 M NaOH solution after the following additions of titrant (NaOH):
(a) 0 mL [2.37]
(b) 10.00 mL [3.74]
(c) 15.00 mL [4.22]
(d) 19.00 mL [5.02]
(e) 19.95 mL [6.34]
(f) 20.00 mL [8.22]
(g) 20.05 mL [10.10]
(h) 25.00 mL [12.05] Now, sketch the graph pH vs. volume of NaOH added (in mL) and identify the following points on the graph:
(a) pH when the [HCOOH] = [HCOO!] called the “half-‐equivalence” point [3.74] (b) pH at the equivalence point [8.22]
What indicator would be most suitable for this titration (See Fig. 19.9 on p. 861)?
