HC2H3O2(aq)+ H2O(l) H3O+ (aq) + C2H3O2−(aq) The Common-Ion Effect A solution composed of two substances, each containing a same ion in common. One is a weak electrolyte (equilibrium) the other strong(not equil). Examples: (1) HF(aq) + NaF(s) (2) HC2H3O2(aq) + NaC2H3O2 (s) (3) HF(aq) + HCl(aq) “The extent of ionization of a weak electrolyte is decreased by adding to the solution a strong electrolyte that has an ion in common with the weak electrolyte.” Add strong electrolyte NaC2H3O2 Consider a solution of acetic acid, a weak electrolyte: What will Le Châtelier predict will happen to the equilibrium? It will shift to the left.
Ka = [H3O+] [F−] [HF] HF(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + F−(aq) = 6.8 10-4 The Common-Ion Effect Problem: Calculate the fluoride ion concentration and pH of a solution that is 0.20 M in HF and 0.10 M in HCl.Ka for HF is 6.8 10−4. Because HCl, a strong acid, is also present, the initial [H3O+] is not 0, but rather 0.10 M.
Ka = [H3O+] [F−] [HF] (0.10+x) (x) (0.20-x) = 6.810−4 = (0.20) (6.8 10−4) (0.10) The Common-Ion Effect X= x = 1.4 10−3 What is [F−] ? And pH? Therefore, [F−] = x = 1.4 10−3 [H3O+] = 0.10 + x= 0.10 + 1.4 10−3= 0.10 M • So, pH = −log (0.10) • pH = 1.00

HC2H3O2(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + C2H3O2−(aq) Buffers • Solutions that are particularly resistant to pH changes, even when strong acid or base is added. • Buffers are solutions of a weak acid mixed with a saltof its conjugate base(a weak conjugate acid-base pair solution). i.e., acetic acid + sodium acetate [ ] [ ] Which is less acidic, buffer (WA + Salt of c.base) or same conc. of weak acid alone?
Add base (OH-) Add acid (H3O+) Buffers [HF] + H2O H3O+ + [F- ] OH- + HF H2O + F- HF H3O+ + F- If an acid is added, the F− reacts with H+ to form HF and water. If a hydroxide is added to an equimolar solution of HF in NaF, for example, the HF reacts with the OH− to make F− and water.

[HX] + H2O H3O+ + [X−] When Strong Acids or Bases Are Added to a Buffer… You end up with two problems: (1) an acid base neutralization, and (2) an equilibrium problem Strong base (OH-) Strong acid (H3O+)
[base] [acid] [HA] + H2O H3O+ + [A−] pH = pKa + log Addition of Strong Acid or Base to a Buffer Add base (OH-) Add acid (H3O+) Add some OH- (HA + OH-A-+ H2O) (H3O+ + A-HA+ H2O) • Neutralization is NOT an equilibrium reaction. • However, it affects the amounts of the weak acid [HA] and its conjugate base [A-] left over, and a new equilibrium will be established. What are the new equilibrium conc. after acid or base is added? (1) Use: MoleICEnd Table: *used for neutralization Rx* Add some H3O+ Moles (η) Molarity (η/L) For a buffer: (2)
[base] [acid] pH = pKa + log Calculating pH Changes in Buffers Problem: HC2H3O2(aq) + OH−(aq) C2H3O2−(aq) + H2O(l) A buffer is made by adding 0.300 mol HC2H3O2 and 0.300 mol NaC2H3O2 to enough water to make 1.00 L of solution. The pH of the buffer is 4.74. Calculate the pH of this solution after 0.020 mol of NaOH is added. Before the reaction, since mol HC2H3O2 = mol C2H3O2− pH = pKa = −log (1.8 10−5) = 4.74 The 0.020 mol NaOH will react with 0.020 mol of the acetic acid: Use: MoleICEnd Table: *used for neutralization Rx*
(0.320) (0.280) [base] [acid] pH = pKa + log pH = 4.74 + log Calculating pH Changes in Buffers Now use the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation to calculate the new pH: pH = 4.74 + 0.058 pH = 4.80

conjugate The Effect of Anions • An anion that is the conjugate base of a strong acid will not affect the pH. • An anion that is the conjugate base of a weak acid will increase the pH (behave as bases).
Effect of Cations • Cations of the strong bases will not affect the pH SOLUBILITY RULES: for Ionic Compounds (Salts) All OH- are insoluble, except for IA metals, NH4+, Ca2+, Ba2+ , and Sr2+ (heavy IIA). • Cations of a weak bases will lower the pH (behave as acids) • Greater charge and smaller size make a cation more acidic.
Ka of Weak Acid andKb of its Conjugate Base The Ka of an acidandKb of its conjugate base are related in this way: Ka Kb = Kw Therefore, if you know one of them, you can calculate the other. Problem: Is NaC2H3O2 acidic or basic? Calculate its Ka or Kb. = 5.6 x 10-10 Ka Kb = Kw (1.0 x 10-14) Kb = (1.8 x 10-5) Kb = (1.0 x 10-14) (1.8 x 10-5)
Effect of Cations and Anions ANION CATION • Cations of the strong bases will not affect the pH When a solution contains both the conjugate base of a weak acid and the conjugate acid of a weak base, the affect on pH depends on the Kaand Kbvalues. SOLUBILITY RULES: for Ionic Compounds (Salts) All OH- are insoluble, except for IA metals, NH4+, Ca2+, Ba2+ , and Sr2+ (heavy IIA). • Cations of a weak bases will lower the pH (behave as acids)

Reactions of Cations with Water • Cations with acidic protons (like NH4+) will lower the pH of a solution: NH4+ + H2O H3O+ + NH3 H O • Most metal cations that are hydrated in solution also lower the pH of the solution, acting as Lewis acids: • The attraction between nonbonding electrons on waters’ oxygen and the metal cation causes a shift of the electron density in water. • This makes the O-H bond more polar and the water more acidic. H H O H Greater charge and smaller size make a cation more acidic.
