Question

When 10 mL of 0.1 M acetic acid (pKa = 5.0), is titrated against 10mL of 0.1 M ammonia solution (pKa = 5.0), the equivalence point occurs at pH :

Options

A.5.0
B.6.0
C.7.0
D.9.0

Solution

CH3COOH + NH4OH → CH3COONH4 + H2O for salt of weak base & weak acid
pH = - [log Ka + logKw - log Kb]
= - [-pKa + kogKw - logKb]
= - [-5 + log10-14 + 5]
= 7
