Question:

a. What is the pH of 0.25 mol dm–3HCl(aq)?

b. What is the pH of 0.0500 mol dm–3 sodium hydroxide? (Kw = 1.00 × 10–14 mol2 dm–6)

c. The graph shows how the pH changes when 0.100 mol dm–3 ethanoic acid is titrated with 0.100 mol dm–3 sodium hydroxide.

i. Explain why methyl orange (pKa = 3.7) is not a suitable indicator to use for this titration.

ii. Would phenolphthalein be a suitable indicator to use for this titration? Explain your answer.

d. Propanoic acid is a weak acid. A 0.0500 mol dm–3 solution of propanoic acid has a pH of 3.1. Calculate the value of Ka for propanoic acid. Show all your working.
