Perform the following calculations in Columns C and D by entering expressions into the appropriate cells in Excel.

Column D - take the measured pH values from Column B and calculate the concentration of H+ in molarity.

Column E - take the calculated concentration of H+ from Column D and calculate the concentration of OH in molarity

Column F - calculate the volume you would have to dilute your solution to for it to have a pH of 7 using the formula M1V1 = M2V2. (Hint: for acidic solutions you will need to use [H+] and for basic solutions you will need to use [OH])

Explanation / Answer

2. 0.1 M acetic acid

pH = -log[H+] = 3.2

[H+] = 6.31 x 10^-4 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/6.31 x 10^-4 = 1.58 x 10^-11 M

initial [H+] = 6.31 x 10^-4 M

final [H+] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/6.31 x 10^-4 M = 1.6 x 10^-4 L of 0.1 M acetic acid

--

3. 0.1 M baking soda

pH = -log[H+] = 8.0

[H+] = 1 x 10^-8 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/1 x 10^-8 = 1 x 10^-6 M

initial [OH-] = 1 x 10^-6 M

final [OH-] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/1 x 10^-6 M = 0.1 L

--

4. 0.1 M HCl

pH = -log[H+] = 1.75

[H+] = 0.018 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/0.018 = 5.62 x 10^-13 M

initial [H+] = 0.018 M

final [H+] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/0.018 M = 5.55 x 10^-6 L

--

5. 0.1 M NaOH

pH = -log[H+] = 12.27

[H+] = 5.37 x 10^-13 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/5.37 x 10^-13 = 0.0186 M

initial [OH-] = 0.0186 M

final [OH-] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/0.0186 M = 5.38 x 10^-6 L

--

6. 0.1 M NH4Cl

pH = -log[H+] = 6.1

[H+] = 7.94 x 10^-7 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/7.94 x 10^-7 = 1.26 x 10^-8 M

initial [H+] = 7.94 x 10^-7 M

final [H+] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/7.94 x 10^-7 M = 0.126 L

--

7. 0.1 M bleach

pH = -log[H+] = 12.7

[H+] = 2 x 10^-13 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/2 x 10^-13 = 0.050 M

initial [OH-] = 0.050 M

final [OH-] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/0.050 M = 2 x 10^-6 L

--

8. 0.1 M sodium acetate

pH = -log[H+] = 7.56

[H+] = 2.75 x 10^-8 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/2.75 x 10^-8 = 3.63 x 10^-7 M

initial [OH-] = 3.63 x 10^-7 M

final [OH-] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/3.63 x 10^-7 M = 0.275 L

--

9. 0.1 M vinegar

pH = -log[H+] = 3.05

[H+] = 8.91 x 10^-4 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/8.91 x 10^-4 = 1.12 x 10^-11 M

initial [H+] = 8.91 x 10^-4 M

final [H+] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/8.91 x 10^-4 M = 1.12 x 10^-4 L

--

10. 0.1 M apple juice

pH = -log[H+] = 4.01

[H+] = 9.8 x 10^-5 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/9.8 x 10^-5 = 1.02 x 10^-10 M

initial [H+] = 9.8 x 10^-5 M

final [H+] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/9.8 x 10^-10 M = 1.02 x 10^-3 L

--

11. 0.1 M coke

pH = -log[H+] = 2.53

[H+] = 2.95 x 10^-3 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/2.95 x 10^-3 = 3.39 x 10^-12 M

initial [H+] = 2.95 x 10^-3 M

final [H+] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/2.95 x 10^-3 M = 3.4 x 10^-5 L

--

12. 0.1 M NaCl

pH = -log[H+] = 7.75

[H+] = 1.8 x 10^-8 M

[OH-] = 1 x 10^-14/1.8 x 10^-8 = 5.62 x 10^-7 M

initial [OH-] = 5.62 x 10^-7 M

final [OH-] needed = 1 x 10^-7 M

let 1.0 L be the final volume of solution

then,

volume for pH 7 = 1 x 10^-7 M x 1 L/5.62 x 10^-7 M = 0.180 L
