Step by step solution

01

Introduction

Equations and data obtained in order to proceed for calculation are as follows

Cu2++Y4−⇌CuY2−Kf=1018.78=6.03×1018At â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰pH â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰11 â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰Î±Y4−=0.81 Table 12−1logβ1=3.99logβ2=7.33logβ3=10.06logβ4=12.03

The beta(β) values were obtained from appendix-1 for Cu2+ and NH3

02

Determine equilibrium constant

αCu2+=11+β11.00+β21.002+β31.003+β41.004=9.23×10−13Kf'=αY4−Kf=0.81×6.03×1018=4.88×1018Kf"=αCu2+×Kf'=9.23×10−13×4.88×1018=4.51×106

Equivalence point=50 mL

03

Determine the value of pCu2+

The concentration of the remaining productcan be calculated using the following equation

=Fraction remaining × Initial concentration × Dilution factor

If 0 mL solution is added then copper concentration will be Ccu2+ =0.001 M

Cu2+=αCu2+×CCu2+=9.23×10−13×0.001M=9.23×10−16M

Therefore, the value of pCu2+

pCu2+=−logCu2+=−log9.23×10−16=15.02

04

b) Determine the value of pCu2+ 

If 1 mL solution is added then copper concentration will be

Therefore, the value of pCu2+

05

c) Determine the value of pCu2+

If 45 mL solution is added then copper concentration will be


Therefore, the value of pCu2+

06

d) Determine the value of pCu2+

At equivalence point (50mL) the following can be written

Therefore, the value of pCu2+

07

e) Determine the value of pCu2+

Past equivalence point (55mL) we can calculate

Therefore, the value of pCu2+

Pyrocatechol violet(Table 12-3) is to be used as a metal ion indicator in an EDTA titration. The procedure is as follows:

1. Add a known excess of EDTA to the unknown metal ion.

2. Adjust the pH with a suitable buffer.

3. Back-titrate the excess chelate with standard Al3+.

From the following available buffers, select the best buffer, and then state what color change will be observed at the end point. Explain your answer.

  1. pH 6–7 (ii) pH 7–8 (iii) pH 8–9 (iv) pH 9–10

Find [Ca2+] in 0.10 M CaY2- at pH 8.00

Consider the titration of 25.0 mL of 0.020 0 M MnSO4 with 0.010 0 M EDTA in a solution buffered to pH 8.00. Calculate pMn2+ at the following volumes of added EDTA and sketch the titration curve:

(a) 0 mL (b) 20.0 mL (c) 40.0 mL (d) 49.0 mL (e) 49.9 mL (f) 50.0 mL (g) 50.1 mL (h) 55.0 mL (i) 60.0 mL

A 50.0-mL sample containing Ni2+ was treated with 25.0 mL of 0.050 0 M EDTA to complex all the Ni2+ and leave excess EDTA in solution. The excess EDTA was then back-titrated, requiring 5.00 mL of 0.050 0 M Zn2+. What was the concentration of Ni2+ in the original solution?

Spreadsheet equation for auxiliary complexing agent. Consider the titration of metal M (initial concentration = CM, initial volume = VM) with EDTA (concentration = CEDTA, volume added = VEDTA) in the presence of an auxiliary complexing ligand (such as ammonia). Follow the derivation in Section 12-4 to show that the master equation for the titration is

Ï•=CETDAVETDACMVM=1+Kf"[M]free-[M]free+Kf"[M]freeCMKf"[M]free+[M]free+Kf"[M]free2CETDA

where role="math"> is the conditional formation constant in the presence of auxiliary complexing agent at the fixed pH of the titration (Equation 12-18) and [M]free is the total concentration of metal not bound to EDTA. [M]free is the same as [M] in Equation 12-15. The result is equivalent to Equation 12-11, with [M] replaced by [M]free and Kf replaced by Kf".
