What would be the pH if 0.200 mol dm-3 of NaOH were added to the solution?
(c)
Find the pH if only 0.100 mol dm-3 of NaOH were added to the original acetic acid solution.
(d)
What would be the new pH, and the percent change in pH, if 0.005 mol/dm3 of HCl were
added to the acetic acid - NaOH solution in (c)?

Carbon dioxide, produced by oxidation of glucose in the tissues, is carried by the blood to
the lungs. Part of it is in solution as carbonic acid, and nearly all the remainder is present
as hydrogen carbonate ion, HCO3-. If the pH of the blood is 7.4, find the fraction of carbon
dioxide is carried by the ion. (Use K1 = 4:47 x 10-7)
An acid-base indicator has a pKa of 4.52. The acid form of the indicator is red and the basic
form is blue. Over what range of pH will the color of this indicator change? Assume that a
definite color change occurs when the relative concentrations of the two forms change from
75% of one form to 75% of the other.

How would you prepare 1 dm3 of buffer solution having a pH of 8.50, starting with
0.100 mol dm-3 KCN and the usual substances available in the laboratory? (For HCN, Ka =
4.8 x 10-10).
(b)
How much would the pH of this buffer solution change if 5.00 x 10-4 mol of HClO4 is
added to 100 cm3 of the solution? What would be the effect of adding the same quantity
of NaOH to 100 cm3 of the buffer?

Solution B was made by mixing together 25 cm3 0.020mol dm3 aqueous sodium
hydroxide with 50 cm3 0.010mol dm3 ethanoic acid, CH3COOH. Solution B is not a
buffer solution.

The student measured the pH of water as 7.0 at 25C. The student then warmed the water
to 40C and measured the pH as 6.7.
What do these results tell you about the tendency of water to ionise as it gets warmer?
Explain your reasoning in terms of equilibrium.
