001 6.0 points What is the concentration of SO^24 − in 2.0 M H 2 SO 4? Ka1 is strong and Ka2 = 1. 2 × 10 −^2.
Explanation:
002 6.0 points If 5.00 mL of 0.500 M NaOH is added to 100 mL of 0.0200 M HCl, what is the pH of the final solution?
Explanation: VNaOH = 5.00 mL MNaOH = 0.500 M VHCl = 100 mL MHCl = 0.0200 M Find number of moles present:
= 0.0025 mol
= 0.002 mol
Write the equation for neutralization with- out spectator ions: H+^ + OH−^ −→ H 2 O
Initial 0. 002 0. 0025 Change − 0. 002 − 0. 002 Final 0 0. 0005
[OH−] = 0.0005 moles but REMEMBER to account for the new volume!!! 105 mL contains 0.0005 moles of OH−, so 1 L will contain( 1 L 0 .105 L
(0.0005 mol/L)
= 0.00476 M OH−
pOH = −log(0.00476) = 2. 32222 pH = 14 − pOH = 14 − 2 .32222 = 11. 68
003 6.0 points Which equation does not require any assump- tions in order to provide an accurate solution?
Cb Ca
004 6.0 points How many equations must be solved in order to accurately calculate all of the unknown concentrations formed at equilibrium when solid NaHSO 3 and solid CaSO 3 are dissolved in water?
Explanation: There are 7 unknowns: H 2 SO 3 , HSO− 3 ,
SO^23 − , Na+, Ca2+, H+, OH−.
005 6.0 points What is the [OH−] of 8 × 10 −^9 M NaOH?
Explanation: NaOH is a strong base, so it completely dissociates. This adds OH−^ ions to solution, which initially will violate the equilibrium ex- pression for the dissociation of water. Then some of the OH−^ will be neutralized with the H+^ until the expression is obeyed again.
Kw = [H+][OH−] 10 −^14 = (10−^7 M − x) · (10−^7 M + 8 × 10 −^9 M − x) = ([OH−] − 8 × 10 −^9 M)[OH−] [OH−] = 1. 0408 × 10 −^7 M
006 6.0 points What will be the pH at the equiva- lence( point of a titration of 0.4 M HIO Ka = 2. 0 × 10 −^11
with 0.4 M NaOH?
Explanation: Equal volumes of the titrant and analyte will be used to reach the equivalence point. Regardless of the starting volume, at the equivalence point the volume will be twice the starting value and all of the hypoiodous acid (HA) will have been converted to hy- poiodite (A−). The solution will be 0.2 M hypoiodite.

007 6.0 points Carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3 ) is a diprotic acid with Ka1 = 4. 2 × 10 −^7 and Ka2 = 4. 8 × 10 −^11. The ion product for water is Kw = 1. 0 × 10 −^14. What is the [H 3 O+] concentration in a saturated carbonic acid solution that is 0. molar?
008 6.0 points Consider the polyprotic acid H 3 AsO 4 (arsenic acid), which has Ka values, in no particu- lar order, of 10−^7 , 10−^2 , and 10−^12 for the equilibria shown below:
α(H 2 SO 3 ) and α(SO^23 − ) at this pH? For H 2 SO 3 , pKa1 and pKa2 are 1.81 and 6.91, respectively.

016 6.0 points What is the final pH of a solution containing 100 mL of 0.2 M HX and 300 mL of 0.1 M NaX after 0.01 mol of NaOH is added? The pKa is 3.00.
Explanation: Initially (100 mL) (0.2 M) = 20 mmol HA (300 mL) (0.1 M) = 30 mmol A− Now add the impurity: 0.01 mol of NaOH = 10 mmol OH−:
ini 20 ≈ 0 30 ∆ − 10 + fin 10 40
Thus
= 4 and
pH = 3.0 + log(4) = 3. 60206.
017 6.0 points A solution initially contains 1 M Ag+^ and 0.1 M Pb2+. If NaCl is added to the solu- tion, which cation will precipitate first, and how many orders of magnitude separate the concentrations of Cl−^ ions at which the pre- cipitations start? AgCl: Ksp ≈ 10 −^10 PbCl 2 : Ksp ≈ 10 −^5
Explanation: For AgCl,
Ksp = [Ag+] [Cl−] 10 −^10 = (1 M) [Cl−] [Cl−] = 10−^10 For PbCl 2 ,
Ksp = [Pb2+] [Cl−]^2 10 −^5 = (0.1 M) [Cl−]^2 [Cl−] = 10−^2 So Ag+^ precipitates first, and 8 orders of magnitude separate the concentrations which cause precipitation.
018 6.0 points For a weak diprotic acid system (H 2 A) which of the following statements are true? I) H 2 A and A^2 −^ form a buffer. II) Ka1 > Ka III) [A^2 −] > [HA−] in acidic solution IV) HA−^ is amphiprotic.
