Note, there is an error in the way this question is worded; although concentrations were requested, the units requested were not units of concentration, but were units of mass. The correct wording of this problem is as below: If you dissolve 9 mg of glucose in 5 ml of H2O, what is the concentration of glucose in mM and mM? Note, there is an error in the way this question is worded; although concentrations was requested, the units requested were not units of concentration, but were units of mass. The correct wording of this problem is as below: If you take 2 mL of the above solution and dilute it to 50 mL, what is the concentration of glucose in the resulting solution in mM?
Chapter 1, pp 43-44. Therefore, 219 mL of acetate are added to each 100 mL of acetic acid. The molarity of the resulting buffer is 0.1 M. Therefore, to 100 mL of 0.1 M Tris, add 43 mL of 0.1 M HCl. The total volume = 143 mL and the final Tris concentration is (0.1 M) (100) / 143 = 0.07 M. Note: If you are able to do problems 1-8 and 1-9, then you clearly have a good understanding of buffers and pH calculations. The appropriate pKa in this case is pK2 = 6.82 Originally we have (150 mL) (0.1 M) base = 15 mmoles and (50 mL ) (0.1 M) acid = 5 mmoles. Therefore, we will convert some of the HPO4 to H2PO4-. We use H3PO4 to titrate the solution. Each time that H3PO4 dissociates to form H+ and H2PO4- (the acidic form in the Henderson-Hasselbach equation), it titrates one HPO42- and adds an equivalent H2PO4- to the solution. Let x= amount of H3PO4 added (or amount of HPO42- converted): Note that since the titration is with 0.1 M H3PO4, the buffer concentration is still 0.1 M.
Solution A Thus, at pH 4.4 there are (100 mL)(0.0696 M) acid = 6.96 mmol and If you add (10 mL) (0.1 M) NaOH = 1 mmol, you will then have pH= 4.76 + log (4.04/5.96) = 4.59. Thus, a change in pH of 0.19 pH units will be observed. The buffering capacity = (change in OH-) / (change in pH)= 1 mM/0.19 pH units=5.26 mmol/pH unit If we had added 10 mL of 0.1 M HCl instead of NaOH, after the addition, acetic acid = 7.96 mmol and acetate = 2.04 mmol pH = 4.76 + log (2.04/7.96) = 4.17 the change in pH = 0.23, and the buffer capacity is 4.35 mmol/pH unit After adding 10 mL of 0.1 M NaOH, Thus, a change in pH of 0.176 is predicted. The buffering capacity is 1 mmol/0.176 pH unit = 5.68mmol/pH unit. If we had added 10 mL of 0.1 M HCl instead of the NaOH, after the addition there would be 6 mmol acetic acid and 4 mmol acetate. The change in pH = -0.176; and buffer capacity = 5.68 mmol/pH unit. After addition of 10 ml of 0.1 M NaOH, acetate = 8.3 mmol and acetic acid = 1.7 mmol The change in pH after addition of the NaOH is thus predicted to be 0.25 pH unit. The buffering capacity = 1 mmol/ 0.25 pH unit= 4.0 mmol/pH unit If we had added 10 mL of 0.1 M HCl instead of the NaOH, after the addition acetic acid = 3.7 mmol and acetate = 6.3 mmol. Thus, a change in pH of -0.209 unit is predicted and the
buffer capacity is
Problem 1-10.
pK1 = 2.1, pK2 = 4.07, pK3 = 9.47 At pH 5.0 (1) is ionized and (2) is more than 1/2 ionized.
(3) is fully protonated.
Alanine (fully protonated) CH3CH(NH3+)(2)COOH(1) pK1 = 2.35, pK2 = 9.87 We could also calculate the fraction of the -NH3+ group that has ionized and add it to the total net charge, but it is even a smaller contribution than 0.002. Lysine (fully protonated) H3N+(3) (CH2)4CH(NH3+)(2)COOH(1) pK1 = 2.16, pK2 = 9.06, pK3 = 10.54 At pH 5.0 (1) is nearly fully ionized and (2) and (3) are nearly fully protonated. Thereforem, the charge ~ 1. Again, you could calculate the small contributions of the two -NH3+ groups, but they will be nearly insignificant. |
