Explanation / Answer

Answer1) We are given, [C6H5NH3+ Cl-] = 0.1563 M , volume = 20.00 mL , [NaOH] = 0.1249 M , volume of NaOH = 15.00 mL

Ka for C6H5NH3+ = 2.40 x10-5

We need to calculate moles of each

Moles of C6H5NH3+ Cl- = 0.1563 M x 0.020 L

                                  = 0.003126 moles

Moles of NaOH = 0.1249 M x 0.015 L

                      = 0.00187 moles

We know reaction –

C6H5NH3+ + NaOH -----> C6H5NH2 + H2O

0.003126    0.00187           0.00187

So, moles of C6H5NH2 formed is 0.00187

Moles of C6H5NH3+ = 0.003126 – 0.00187 = 0.00125

Total volume = 20.00 +15.00 = 35.00 mL

New molarity –

[C6H5NH3+ ] = 0.00125 moles / 0.035 L = 0.0358 M

[C6H5NH2] = 0.00187 moles / 0.035 L = 0.0535 M

We know HendersonHasselbalch equation

pH = pKa + log [C6H5NH2] / [C6H5NH3+]

   we are givn Ka for aniline we need to calculate pKa

we know,

pKa = -log Ka

       = - log 2.40 x10-5

       = 4.62

pH = 4.62 + log 0.0535 / 0.00358

        = 4.79

2) We are given, 25.00 mL of 0.4592M HCl and 22.74 mL of KOH

We know neutralization reaction –

HCl + KOH -----> KCl + H2O

We need to calculate moles of HCl first –

Moles of HCl = 0.4592 M x 0.025 L

                      = 0.01148 moles

form the balanced reaction –

1 moles of HCl = 1 mole so KOH

So, moles of KOH = 0.01148 moles

We are given volume of KOH

We know,

Molarity of KOH = 0.01148 moles / 0.02274 L

                       = 0.5048 M

the concentration of KOH is 0.5048
