The Common Ion Effect (1)
This applies to weak acids, weak bases and solubility of
salts when a common ion is added to the equilibrium
reaction. You can change the pH, but adding salt.
HF (aq) H+ (aq) + F- (aq) Ka = 7.2 x 10-4
NaF (s) → Na+ (aq) + F– (aq) [H 3O + ][F − ]
Ka =
[HF]
€
When F- is added (from NaF), then [H+] must decrease (Le Chatelier’s
principle). The pH increases. See example 13.1 in the text to see how
to quantitatively determine this effect, with an ICE box)
3.
The Common Ion Effect (2)
If a solution and a salt to be dissolved in it have an
ion in common, then the solubility of the salt is
depressed relative to pure.
General equation
AB (s) A+ (aq) + B- (aq)
If you add BH(aq), which dissociates into B- and H+, then the [A+]
decreases, and AB is driven out of solution.

Buffered Solutions
The Common Ion Effect on Buffering
Buffers: resist change in pH when acid or
base is added.
Buffer Solutions: contain a common ion
and are important in biochemical and
physiological processes
Organisms (and humans) have built-in
buffers to protect them against changes
in pH.
Blood: (pH 7.4)
Human blood is a
Death = 7.0 7.8 = Death buffered solution
Human blood is maintained by a combination of CO3-2, PO4-3 and protein buffers.

Unbuffered solution
A solution that is buffered
by acetic acid/acetate
6.
How Do Buffers Work?
HA H+ + A –
HA = generic acid
• Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA] => [H+] = Ka[HA]/[A-]
•If Ka is small (weak acid) then [H+] does not change
much when [HA] and [A-] change.
If [HA] and [A-] are large, and [HA]/[A-] ≈ 1,then small
additions of acid ([H+]) or base ([OH-]) don’t change the
ratio much.
7.
Example: A solution of 0.5 M acetic acid plus 0.5 M acetate
Ka = 1.8x10-5 pKa = 4.7
HA H+ + A -
Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA] pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]
Use an ICE box to calculate the pH
[AH]ini = 0.5, [A-]ini = 0.5, [H+]ini = 0
=> => pH = 4.74 i.e., pH=pKa
8.
Example: A solution of 0.5 M acetic acid plus 0.5 M acetate
Ka = 1.8x10-5 pKa = 4.74
HA H+ + A -
Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA] pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]
Use an ICE box to calculate the pH
[AH]ini = 0.5, [A-]ini = 0.5, [H+]ini = 0
=> => pH = 4.74 i.e., pH=pKa
Now add NaOH to 0.01 M
(in an unbuffered solution this would give a pOH of 2 and pH of 12)
Use HA + OH- → H2O + A-
Redo the ICE Box
[AH]ini = 0.49, [A-]ini = 0.51
=> => pH = 4.76
9.
Buffer Calculation: Add Acid (#1) to a Buffered Solution
Acetic Acid: Ka = 1.8x10-5 pKa = 4.74
HA H+ + A -
Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA] => -pKa = -pH + log[A-]/[HA] =>
pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]
Case 1) [CH3COOH]tot = [CH3COOH] + [CH3COO-] = 1.0M
pH = pKa => [CH3COOH] = [CH3COO-] = 0.5
Now add 0.01 M HCl (strong acid)
[CH3COOH] = 0.51 [CH3COO-] = 0.49
pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA] = 4.74 + log(0.49/0.51)
= 4.74 – 0.02 = 4.72
10.
Buffer Calculation: Add Acid (#2) to a dilute Buffered Solution
Acetic Acid: Ka = 1.8x10-5 pKa = 4.74
HA H+ + A -
Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA] => -pKa = -pH + log[A-]/[HA] =>
pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]
Case 2) [CH3COOH]tot = [CH3COOH] + [CH3COO-] = 0.10 M
pH = pKa => [CH3COOH] = [CH3COO-] = 0.05
Now add 0.01 M HCl (strong acid)
[CH3COOH] = 0.06 [CH3COO-] = 0.04
pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA] = 4.74 + log(0.04/0.06)
= 4.74 – 1.5 = 3.54
11.
Adding Base to a Buffered Solution:
OH- ions do not accumulate but are replaced
by A - ions.
OH– + HA ⇌ A– + H2O
12.
When the OH- is added, the concentrations of HA and A -
change, but only by small amounts. Under these conditions the
[HA]/[A-] ratio and thus the [H+] stay virtually constant.
OH– + HA ⇌ A– + H2O
When protons are added
to a buffered solution,
the conjugate base (A–)
reacts
H+ + A– ⇌ HA
13.
Characteristics of Buffered solutions
• Contain relatively large
concentrations of a weak ⎛ [A −] ⎞

acid and its conjugate ⎝[HA] ⎠
base.
• When acid is added, it
reacts with the conjugate
base
• When base is added, it
reacts with the acid.
• pH is determined by the
ratio of the base and acid.
14.
Buffer Capacity
• Buffer capacity is the amount of protons or
hydroxide ions that can be absorbed without a
significant change in pH.
• pH is determined by the ratio of [A–]/[HA] and
pKa
• Capacity is determined by the magnitudes of
[HA] and [A–].

pH = pK a + log⎜ ⎟

Buffer Summary
Buffer Design: Add known amount of HA (weak acid) and
salt of HA (its conjugate base, A ─)
[H+] or pH depends on Ka and the ratio of acid to salt or
Thus if both conc. HA and A - are large then small
additions of acid or base don’t change the ratio much

Acid-Base Titrations
Titration: A controlled addition of measured volumes of a
solution of known concentration (the Titrant) from a buret to a
second solution of unknown concentration under conditions in
which the solutes react cleanly (without side reactions),
completely, and rapidly.
A titration is complete when the second solute is fully
consumed
Completion is signaled by a change in some physical property,
such as the color of the reacting mixture or the color of an
indicator that has been added to it.

solutions

consequently more solid Zn(OH)2 dissolves.
