Indicators for Acid-Base Titrations (Sec. 9-6). transition range needs to match the endpoint pH as closely as possible in order to minimize titration error. Acid-Base indicators are themselves weak acids…. e.g. phenolthalein H 2 In = HIn - = In 2-. phenolthalein 8.0-9.6.

Finding the pH in Diprotic Systems (Sec. 11-2) 1. The acidic form H2L+ The strength of H2L+ as an acid is much, much greater than HL - Ka1 = 10-2.328 = 4.7 x 10-3 Ka2 = 10-9.744 = 1.8 x 10-10 So assume the pH depends only on H2L+ and ignore the contribution of H+ from HL.
Ka1 = 10-2.328 = 4.7 x 10-3 Ka2 = 10-9.744 = 1.8 x 10-10 2. The basic form L- Strengths of conjugate bases: for L- Kb1 = Kw/Ka2 = 1.01 x 10-14/1.8 x 10-10 = 5.61 x 10-5 for HL Kb2 = Kw/Ka1 = 1.01 x 10-14/4.7 x 10-3 = 2.1 x 10-12 Since the second conj. base HL is so weak, we'll assume all the OH- comes from the L- form.
Example: Calculate the pH of a 0.050M solution of sodium leucinate
The Intermediate FormThe pH of a Zwitterion Solution - Leucine (HL form)
