The ionization constant of weak acid H_3PO_4 in three step are respectively K_a(1), K_a(2) and K_a (3). Give increasing order of these constant. Give reason. |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :`K_a(3) lt K_a(2) lt K_a(1)` It is EASIER to form conjugate base by REMOVAL of proton from neutral atom therefore `K_a (1)` is maximum. As, negative charge of conjugate base is more the removal of positively charge proton from it is difficult. As a RESULT negative charge increase then `K_a`, decreases VALUE of `K_a(1) to K_a(2) to K_a(3)` decreases . |

The ionization constant of phenol is 1.0xx10^(-10) .What is the concentration of phenolate ion is 0.05 M solution of phenol ? What will beits degree of ionization if the solution is also 0.01 M in sodium phenolate ? |
|
Answer» Solution :The CONCENTRATION of Phenolate ion `(C_6H_5OH)` in 0.05 M Phenol `(C_6H_5O^-)` is =`ALPHA` `{:(,C_6H_5OH_((aq)) + H_2O hArr,C_6H_5O_((aq))^(-) + , H_3O_((aq))^(+)),("Initial :", 0.05 M, -,-),("Change in equilibrium :", -alpha,+alpha,+alpha),("At equili. M:" ,(0.05-alpha),alpha,alpha) :}` `K_a=([C_6H_5O^-][H_3O^+])/([C_6H_5OH])=1.0xx10^(-10)` `therefore alpha^2/(0.05-alpha)=1.0xx10^(-10)` `therefore alpha^2/0.05 = 1.0xx10^(-10)` (`because alpha lt lt` 0.05 , So take 0.05 - `alpha`=0.05) `therefore alpha^2= 0.05xx10^(-10) = 5.0xx10^(-12)` `therefore alpha=sqrt(5.0xx10^(-12))=2.236xx10^(-6) M = [C_6H_5O^-]` If 0.01 M sodium phenolate degree of ionization COMPLETE ionization of sodium phenolate is under. `{:(C_6H_5ONa to , C_6H_5O^(-)+ , Na^+),(0.01 M,0.01 M,0.01M):}` If dissociation degree of phenol is equal to x . So, `therefore` Dissociated phenol = `C xx x`= (0.05 )x `therefore` At equilibrium [Phenol]=(0.05-0.05x) but x is very less, So , [Phenol] `approx` 0.05=C At equilibrium `[H_3O^+]` in [Phenol] =`Cxxx`= 0.05 x (Phenolet ion at equilibrium)=(Phenolet formed from phenol)+(Phenolet of sodium phenolet ) `[C_6H_5O^-]=(C alpha+0.01)` `=(0.05 alpha+0.01)` `approx` 0.01 (`because alpha` is very less) This values put in table : `{:(,C_6H_5OH_((aq))+H_2O_((l)) hArr, C_6H_5O_((aq))^(-)+,H_3O_((aq))^(+)),("At equili.",0.05 M, 0.01 M, x(0.05)):}` `K_a=([C_6H_5O^-][H_3O^+])/([C_6H_5OH])=1.0xx10^(-10)` `therefore K_a=((0.01)(0.05x))/((0.05))=1.0xx10^(-10)` `therefore x=(1.0xx10^(-10))/0.01 = 1.0xx10^(-8)` |

The ionization constant of propanoic acid is 1.32xx10^(-5). Calculate the degree of ionization if its solution is 0.05 M. What will be its degree of ionization if the solution is 0.01 M in HCl also? |
|
Answer» Solution :Assuming `alpha` to be very small,applying the formula directly, we have `alpha=sqrt(K_(a)//c)=sqrt((1.32xx10^(-5))//0.05)=1.62xx10^(-2)` `CH_(3)CH_(2)CO OH hArrCH_(3)CH_(2)CO O^(-)+ H^(+)` In presence of HCL, equilibrium will shift in the backward direction, i.e., concentration of `CH_(3)CH_(2)CO OH` will increase, i.e., amount dissociated will be LESS. If c is the INITIAL concentration and x is the amount now dissociated,then at equilibrium `[CH_(3)CH_(2)CO OH]=c-x, [CH_(3)CH_(2)CO O^(-)]=x, [H^(+)]=0.01 + x ` `:.K_(a) = (x(0.01xx x))/(c-x)~=(x(0.01))/(c) or (x)/(c) =(K_(a))/(0.01)=(1.32xx10^(-5))/(10^(-2))=1.32xx10^(-3)`. But `(x)/(c) ` means `alpha`. Hence, `alpha = 1.32xx10^(-3)`. |

Answer» Solution :`ClCH_(2)CO OH hArr ClCH_(2)CO O^(-)+ H^(+),K_(a)=([ClCH_(2)CO O^(-)][H^(+)])/([ClCH_(2)CO OH])=([H^(+)]^(2))/(C)` `[H^(+)]=sqrt(K_(a)xxc)=sqrt(1.35xx10^(-3)xx0.1)=1.16xx10^(-2)M` `pH=-log (1.16xx10^(-2))=2-0.06=1.94` Sodium salt of chloroacetic acid is a salt of strong base and weak acid .

|
Answer» `54.95` `alpha = sqrt((K_(H))) = sqrt(((K_(W))/(K_(a) xx K_(b))))"......"(i)` Where `K_(q) = 10^(-14)` `K_(a) = 1.75 xx 10^(-5), K_(b) = 3.83 xx 10^(-10)` `alpha = sqrt(((10^(-14))/(1.75 xx 10^(-5) xx 3.83 xx 10^(-10)))) = 1.22` Which is not possible because, degree of of hydrolysis may be notbe greater than `1`. Thus, we have no avoid the APPROXIMATION. `(alpha)/(1-alpha) = sqrt((K_(h))) = 1.22 , alpha = (1.22)/(2.22) = 0.5495` `%` hydrolysis `= alpha ' 100` `= 0.5495 xx 100 = 54.95%` |

The ionization constant of benzoic acid is 6.46xx10^(-5) and K_(sp) for silver benzoate is 2.5xx10^(-13). How many times is silver benzoate more soluble in a buffer of pH3.19 compared to its solubility in pure water ? |

Answer» Solution :`C_(6)H_(5)CO Oag rarr C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-) + Ag^(+)` Solubility in water. Suppose solubility in water = x mol `L^(-1)`. Then `[C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)]=[Ag^(+)] = x "mol" L^(-1) .:. X^(2)=K_(sp) or x = sqrt(K_(sp))=sqrt(2.5xx10^(-13))=5xx10^(-7)` mol ` L^(-1)` Solubility in buffer of pH = 3.19 `pH = 3.19 ` means ` - log (H^(+)]=3.19 or log [H^(+)]=-3.19 = bar(4).81 or[H^(+)] = 6.457 xx 10^(-4)M` `C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)` ions now conbine with the `H^(+)` ions to from benzoic acid but `[H^(+)]` remains almost constant because we have buffer solution . Now `C_(6)H_(5) CO OH hArr C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-) + H^(+)` `:. K_(a)=([C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)][H^(+)])/([C_(6)H_(5)CO OH]) or([C_(6)H_(5)CO OH ])/([C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)])=([H^(+)])/(K_(a))=(6.457xx10^(-4))/(6.46xx10^(-5))=10` ...(i) Suppose solubility in the buffer solution isy mol `L^(-1)` . Then as most of the benzote ions are converted into bezoic acid molecules (which remain almost IONIZED), we have `y = [Ag^(+)] = [ C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)]+[C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)] + [ C_(6)H_(5)CO OH]=[C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)] + 10 [C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(- )]=11[C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)] " " `(using eqn. (i) ) `:.[C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)]=(y)/(11)` `K_(sp)=[C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)][Ag^(+)]` i.e., `2.5xx10^(-3)=(y)/(11) xx y or y^(2)=2.75 xx 10^(-12) or y=1.66xx10^(-6) :. (y)/(x)=(1.66xx10^(-6))/(5xx10^(-7))=3.32`. Note that in case of salts of weak acids, the solubility is more in the acidic solution than in water. The reason, in general, may be explained as follows : TAKING EXAMPLE of `C_(6)H_(5)CO O Ag`, we have `C_(6)H_(5)CO O Ag hArr C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-) + Ag^(+)` In acidic solution, the anions (`C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)` in thepresent case) undergo protonation in presence of acid . Thus, `C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)` ions are removed. Hence, EQUILIBRIUM shifts forward producing more `Ag^(+)` ions. ALTERNATIVELY, as `C_(6)H_(5)CO O^(-)` ions are removed, `Q_(sp)` decrease. In order tomaintain solubility product equilibrium `(Q_(sp) = K_(sp)), Ag^(+)` ion concentration must increase. Hence, solubilityis more. |
