pH metric Titration

Third Exercise
A bottle of commercial hydrochloric acid solution So is labelled:

Strong acid
Density=1.19Kg.L-1
37% composition by mass
M(HCl)=36.5g.mol-1

1- Determine the concentration of solution So.


2- 4.2mL of So are diluted to 500mL solution called S.
We titrate S with 200mL of KOH solution of molar concentration 3x10-3mol.L1placed in a
beaker. The results of the measurements of pH versus volumes of acid S are given in the
following table:

Va 0 1 2 3 4 4.5 5 5.4 5. 6. 6. 6. 6. 7 8 9 10 11 12
m 8 2 4 6 8
L
pH 11. 11. 11. 11. 1 10. 10. 10. 10 4. 3. 3. 3. 3. 3 2. 2. 2. 2.5
5 4 3 2 1 9 7 5 0 7 5 4 3 8 7 6

Plot the curve pH=f(Va)


3- Determine graphically the equivalence point.
4- 4.1-Determine the concentration of solution S.
4.2-Deduce the concentration of solution So.
5- 5.1- Determine the % composition by mass of solution So.
5.2- Does it verify the label knowing that the relative error must not exceed 5%
6- 6.1-Derive the formula of pH at any time before equivalence
6.2- Derive the formula of pH at any time after equivalence
7- Determine the concentration of all chemical species for a pH=10
8- Hydrochloric acid is replaced by nitric acid which is a strong acidic solution of the same
concentration. Will the curve pH=f(Va) change? Justify your answer.
