Explanation
Now, to find the pH, Let us consider
CH3 COOH
CH3 COO H

CH3COOH
Since CH3COOH is feebly ionized, so most of CH3COO–
will come from the salt.
Hence, [CH3COO–] = [Salt]

Questions
Illustrative example 1
Calculate the pH of a buffer solution
containing 0.1 M each of acetic acid and
sodium acetate. (Ka = 1.8 × 10–5)
What will be the change in pH on adding
(a) 0.01 moles of HCl to 1.0 L of solution?
(b) 0.01 moles of NaOH to 1.0 L of solution?
(Assume that no change in volume occurs on
the addition of HCl or NaOH)

pH = 4.745 + 0 = 4.745
Solution
(a) 0.01 moles of HCl give 0.01 moles
of H+ which reacts with 0.01 moles
of CH3COO– to form CH3COOH.
Therefore,
CH COO 0.1 0.01 0.09 M

CH3COOH 0.1 0.01 0.11 M
pH 4.745 log
[0.09]
4.745 0.087 4.658
[0.11]
Change in pH = 4.745 – 4.658 = 0.087 units
Hence, pH will decrease.
Solution
(b) On adding 0.01 moles of NaOH to a
litre of solution, 0.01 moles of OH– will
react with 0.01 moles of CH3COOH.
Therefore,
[CH3COOH] = 0.1 – 0.01 = 0.09 M
[CH3COO–] = 0.1 + 0.11 = 0.11 M
pH 4.745 log
[0.11]
4.745 0.086 4.831
[0.09]
Change in pH = 4.831 – 4.745 = 0.086 units
Hence, pH will increase.
Illustrative example 2
Calculate the amount of NH3 and NH4Cl
required to prepare a buffer solution of pH
9.0 when total concentration of buffering
reagents is 0.6 mol L-1. pKb for NH3 = 4.7,

Buffer Capacity
Buffer capacity is defined
quantitatively as number of moles of
acid or base added in 1 L of solution
as to change the pH by unity, i.e.
Buffer capacity
Number of moles of acid or base added to 1 litre
=
Change in pH

Solubility and solubility product
Any sparingly soluble salt will dissolve in
very small amount and whatever
dissolves will ionize into respective ions.
At certain temperature solubility of a salt
is fixed.
Thus
AgCl (s)
Ag+ + Cl
Ag Cl
K
[AgCl (s)]
[AgCl] may be taken as constant,
thus K·[AgCl] = [Ag+]·[Cl–]
Solubility and solubility product
or
Ksp = [Ag+]·[Cl–]
Where, Ksp = Solubility product
in saturated solution.
In saturated solution,
the ionic product, Ki = Ksp
If Ki < Ksp
the solution is unsaturated.
If Ki > Ksp the solution is super saturated and
precipitation occurs.
