Final pH of the solution: 2.79.

Explanation:

What's in the solution after mixing?

$\displaystyle c = \frac{n}{V}$ ,

where

is the concentration of the solute,

is the number of moles of the solute, and

is the volume of the solution.

$V(\text{Final}) = 0.050 \;\textbf{L} + 0.050\;\textbf{L} = 0.100\;\textbf{L}$ .

Acetic (ethanoic) acid:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}n &= c(\text{Before})\cdot V(\text{Before}) \\&= 0.050\;\text{L} \times 0.200\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{L}^{-1}\\ &= 0.0100\;\text{mol}\end{aligned}$ .

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}c(\text{After}) &= \frac{n}{V(\text{After})}\\ &= \frac{0.0100\;\text{mol}}{0.100\;\text{L}}\\ &= 0.100\;\text{mol}\cdot\textbf{L}^{-1}\\ &= 0.100\;\text{M}\end{aligned}$ .

Hydrochloric acid HCl:

$\begin{aligned}n &= c(\text{Before})\cdot V(\text{Before})\\ &= 0.050\;\text{L} \times 1.00\times 10^{-3}\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{L}^{-1}\\ &= 5.00\times 10^{-5}\;\text{mol}\end{aligned}$ .

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}c(\text{After}) &= \frac{n}{V(\text{After})}\\ &= \frac{5.00\times 10^{-5}\;\text{mol}}{0.100\;\text{L}}\\ &= 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{mol}\cdot\textbf{L}^{-1}\\ &= 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M}\end{aligned}$ .

HCl is a strong acid. It will completely dissociate in water to produce H⁺. The H⁺ concentration in the solution before acetic acid dissociates shall also be $5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M}$ .

The Ka value of acetic acid is considerably small. Acetic acid is a weak acid and will dissociate only partially when dissolved. Construct a RICE table to predict the portion of acetic acid that will dissociate. Let the change in acetic acid concentration be $-x\;\text{M}$ . x 0 .

$\begin{array}{c|ccccc}\textbf{R}&\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}\;(aq) &\rightleftharpoons &\text{CH}_3\text{COO}^{-}\;(aq) &+& \text{H}^{+}\;(aq)\\\textbf{I}&0.100\;\text{M} & & & & 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M}\\\textbf{C}&-x\;\text{M} & & +x\;\text{M} & & +x\;\text{M} \\ \textbf{E}&0.100\;\text{M}-x\;\text{M} & & x\;\text{M} & & 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M} + x\;\text{M}\end{array}$ .

$\displaystyle K_a = \frac{[\text{CH}_3\text{COO}^{-}\;(aq)]\cdot[\text{H}^{+}\;(aq)]}{[\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}\;(aq)]} = \frac{x\cdot(x + 5.00\times 10^{-4})}{0.100 - x}$ .

Rewrite as a quadratic equation and solve for :

$x\cdot(x + 5.00\times 10^{-4}) = (1.8\times 10^{-5} )\cdot (0.100 - x)$

$x\approx 0.00111$ .

The pH of a solution depends on its H⁺ concentration.

At equilibrium

$[\text{H}^{+}\;(aq)] = 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M} + x\;\text{M} = 0.00161\;\text{M}$ .

$\text{pH} = -\log{[\text{H}^{+}]} = 2.79$ .

Answerthis solution will not form a precipitateexplanationsolubility equilbrium: pbf₂(s) ⇄ pb²⁺(aq) + 2 f⁻(aq)the solubility product expression is $k_{sp} = [\text{pb}^{2+}][\text{f}^- ]^2 = 4 \times 10^{-8}$ (we exclude solids from the equilibrium expression).now suppose we have the trial ion product q, which we can define as $q = [\text{pb}^{2+}]_{\text{initial}} \cdot [\text{f}^- ]^2_{\text{initial}}$ then, we can interpret q as the product of the concentration of the ions that we have and ksp as the product of the ion concentrations that are needed to form a saturated solution.if q > ksp, then that implies that there will be a surplus of ions that exceed the amount that is required to form a saturated solution. a precipitate will then form (the precipitate continually forms until the surplus ions are removed and q is decreased to ksp's value).if q = ksp, the saturated solution that forms is barely saturated and the precipitate will be minimal.if q < ksp, then the ion concentration will not be enough to form a saturated solution (so no precipitate).using our information, we calculate the trial ion product: $\begin{aligned} q & = [\text{pb}^{2+}]_{\text{initial}} \cdot [\text{f}^- ]^2_{\text{initial}} \\ & = (1.9 \times 10^{-3} ) (3.8\times 10^{3})^2 \\ & = 2.7 \times 10^{-8} \end{aligned}$ since q = 2.7 × 10⁻⁸ < ksp = 4 × 10⁻⁸, a precipitate will not form.
