Acids & Bases Calculating Ka from % Dissociation Polyprotic Acids Properties of Salts
Example • Lactic acid (HC3H5O3) is a waste product that accumulates in the muscle during exertion, leading to pain & a feeling of fatigue. A 0.100 M solution is 3.7% dissociated. Calculate Ka.
Example HC3H5O3 H+ + C3H5O3-
Example HC3H5O3 H+ + C3H5O3- 0.100 x 3.7% = 0.0037
Example • Ka = [H+][C3H5O3-] / [HC3H5O3] • Ka = [0.0037][0.0037] / [0.9963] • Ka = 1.37 x 10-5
Polyprotic Acids • More that one ionizable H+ • H+ come off one at a time • Each one has a specific Ka value • Ka1>>>>Ka2>>Ka3 • When calculating the pH of a polyprotic acid, you only use the 1st Ka because all of the others are so small
Complete Ionization • Write the steps for the complete ionization of H2Se • H2Se • H2Se + H20 H30+ + HSe- Ka1 = # • HSe- + H20 H30+ + Se-2 Ka2 = #
Complete Ionization • Write the steps for the complete ionization of H3AsO • H3AsO + H2O H2AsO - + H3O + Ka1 = # • H2AsO - + H2O HAsO -2 + H3O + Ka2 = # • HAsO -2 + H2O AsO -3 + H3O + Ka3 = #
Example • Calculate the pH & the [ ] of all species of a 3.0 M solution of H3PO4. • Ka1 = 7.5 x 10-3, Ka2 = 6.2 x 10-8, Ka3 = 4.8 x 10 -13
Example H3PO4 H+ + H2PO4- Ka1 = 7.5 x 10-3
Example H3PO4 H+ + H2PO4- Ka1 = 7.5 x 10-3 7.5 x 10-3 = x2 / (3-x) 7.5 x 10-3 (3-x) = x2 x = 0.146
Example H2PO4 - H+ + HPO4-2 Ka1 = 6.2 x 10-8
Example H2PO4 - H+ + HPO4-2 Ka2 = 6.2 x 10-8 6.2 x 10-8 =(0.146+x)x / (0.146-x) x = 6.2 x 10-8
Example HPO4 -2 H+ + PO4-3 Ka3 = 4.8 x 10-13
Example HPO4-2 H+ + PO4-3 Ka3 = 4.8 x 10-13 4.8x 10-8 =(0.146+x)x/(6.2x10-8-x) x = 2.0x10-19
Example • pH = 0.836 • [H3PO4] = 2.85M • [H2PO4-] = 0.146M • [HPO4-2] = 6.2x10-8 • [PO4-3] = 2.0x10-19M • [H+] = 0.146M
Acid Base Properties of Salts • Salts of weak acids produce basic solutions • NaC2H3O2 Na+ + C2H3O2- • NaOH HC2H3O2 • SB WA • C2H3O2- + H2O HC2H3O2 + OH- • Resulting - basic solution
Acid Base Properties of Salts • Salts of weak bases produce acidic solutions • NH4Cl NH4+ + Cl- • NH3 HCl • WB SA • NH4+ + H2O NH3 + H3O+ • Resulting – acidic solution
Acid Base Properties of Salts • Salts of strong acids & Bases produce neutral solutions • NaCl Na+ + Cl- • NaOH HCl • SB SA • Resulting solution is neutral
Calculations with salts • KaxKb = Kw • Can find Ka or Kb with this equation • On AP formula sheet
Example • What is the pH if a 0.140M solution of NaC2H3O2 (KaHC2H3O2 = 1.8x10-5) • NaC2H3O2 Na+ + C2H3O2- • C2H3O2- + H2O HC2H3O2 + OH-
Example • What is the pH if a 0.140M solution of NaC2H3O2 (KaHC2H3O2 = 1.8x10-5) • NaC2H3O2 Na+ + C2H3O2- • C2H3O2- + H2O HC2H3O2 + OH-
Example • C2H3O2- + H2O HC2H3O2 + OH- • Ka HC2H3O2 = 1.8x10-5 but we are starting with a base C2H3O2– • Ka x Kb = Kw • (1.8x10-5)(Kb) = 1 x 10-14 • Kb = 5.56x10-10
Example • Kb = [HC2H3O2][OH-] / [C2H3O2-] • 5.56x10-10 = [x2]/ [0.14-x] • X=8.82x10-6 = [OH-] • pOH = 5.05 • pH = 8.95
Another example • What is the pH of a 0.140M solution of diethylaminochloride (C2H5)2NH3Cl. • Kb (C2H5)2NH3+ = 1.3x10-3 • (C2H5)2NH3Cl (C2H5)2NH3+ + Cl- • (C2H5)2NH3+ + H2O (C2H5)2NH2 + H3O +
Another example • What is the pH of a 0.140M solution of diethylaminochloride (C2H5)2NH3Cl. • Kb (C2H5)2NH2 = 1.3x10-3 • (C2H5)2NH3Cl (C2H5)2NH3+ + Cl- • (C2H5)2NH3+ + H2O (C2H5)2NH2 + H3O +
Another Example (C2H5)2NH3+ + H2O (C2H5)2NH2 + H3O+ • Kb (C2H5)2NH2 = 1.3x10-3 but we are starting with an acid (C2H5)2NH3+ • Ka x Kb = Kw • (1.3x10-3)(Kb) = 1 x 10-14 • Kb = 7.7x10-12
Example • Kb = [(C2H5)2NH2][H3O+] / [(C2H5)2NH3+] • 7.7x10-12 = [x2]/ [0.14-x] • X=1.4x10-6 = [H3O+] • pH = 5.98

Effect of Structure of Acid Base Properties • HF weakest because the H – X bond the strongest, so it won’t let the H pop off easily • HI strongest because the H – X bond the weakest, so the H pop off easily
Effect of Structure of Acid Base Properties • HClO4 • The O’s are pulling the e- (they are e- hogs) leaving the H to easily pop off • HClO • The O is not pulling as much as HClO4, so it is harder for the H to pop off
