Chapter 10: Q28P (page 232)

A dibasic compound, B, has pKb1 5 4.00 and pKb2 5 6.00.
Find the fraction in the form ${BH}_{2}^{2 +}$ at pH 7.00, using Equation
10-19. Note that K1 and K2 in Equation 10-19 are acid dissociation
constants forlocalid="1655450143786" $^{{BH}_{2}^{2 +}}$
1 (K1 = Kw/Kb2 and K2 = Kw/Kb1).

Short Answer

Expert verified

The answer is $a ({BH}_{2}^{2 +}) = 0.91$ .

Step by step solution

Dibasic acid

Dibasic, or diprotic acid, an acid containing two potential protons to donate. Dibasic salt, is a salt with two hydrogen atoms, with respect to the parent acid, replaced by cations. Dibasic ester, is an ester of a dicarboxylic acid.

Calculating fraction in the form at pH 7.00

We will use the following:

$^{[H^{+}] = 10^{- 7}}$ from $^{pH = 7.00}$

$^{K_{1} = 10^{- 8}}$ from $^{{pK}_{b 2} = 6.00}$

$^{K_{2} = 10^{- 10}}$ from $^{p_{b 1} = 4.00}$

In order to find the fraction in the form of $^{{BH}_{2}^{2 +}}$ ,

$a ({BH}_{2}^{2}) = \frac{[H^{+}]}{{[H^{+}]}^{2} + [H^{+}] K_{1 +} K_{1} K_{2}} a ({BH}_{2}^{2}) = \frac{{(10^{- 7})}^{2}}{{(10^{- 7})}^{2} + (10^{- 7}) 脳 (10^{- 8}) + (10^{- 8} 脳 10^{- 10})} a ({BH}_{2}^{2}) = 0.91$

The final answer is; $^{a ({BH}_{2}^{2}) = 0.91}$
