Document Summary

Acid-base neutralization reactions involve the reaction of an acid with a base, to form a salt and usually water. Redox reactions involve a change in oxidation state for one or more elements. Precipitation reactions have the general form where an insoluble salt is produced from two soluble salts. If acid is leftover, that means the base is the limiting reactant. The amount of acid leftover is the difference between the amount present and the amount that reacts. Find the number of moles of base present, then use that value and the coefficients from the balanced chemical equation to find the number of moles of acid that react. Find the number of moles of acid present, then subtract the number of moles of acid that react. Finally, use the remaining number of moles of acid and the total volume to find the final concentration of the acid. The equation is 2na3po4(aq) + 3cucl2(aq) -> cu3(po4)2(s)+ 6nacl(aq)

Part A A fuel cell differs from a battery because the current is being generated from a reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction in which the reactant is consumed. A classic example of a fuel cell is the phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC), which have been used in stationary power generators, buses, and even submarines. Fuel cells require an electrolyte (similar to batteries) to carry electrically charged species between the electrodes, and a PAFC utilizes phosphoric acid (H3PO4) as its electrolyte. Phosphoric acid has three acidic protons that can dissociate in water, as highlighted in red here: H3PO4. However, it is considered a weak acid because some of the acid will remain in molecular form when dissolved in water. Write the complete ionic equation that depicts the dissociation of the first proton for the weak acid phosphoric acid (H3PO4). Make certain you include all charges for any ions produced. Express you answer as a chemical equation including phases. Titrations as analytical neutralization reactions Neutralization reactions can occur between any combination of weak/strong acids and bases. When we want to determine the concentration of a base in solution, we can apply the concept of neutralization by reacting the base with a known amount of an acid in the presence of an indicator (a compound that changes color depending on the pH). This method of determining the concentration of a base is called acid-base titration, and it can also be used to determine the concentration of an acid by titrating it with a known amount of base. A common acid to use for titrations is potassium hydrogen phthalate (written as KHP or KHPh; do not confuse the P for phosphorus). The reason KHP is common is because it is solid at room temperature, and we can accurately mass the amount that is added to solution. As a soluble salt, KHP completely dissociates to form a potassium ion (K+) and an acidic hydrogen phthalate ion (HP−), which is a weak acid that has only one acidic hydrogen. This ionization is depicted below. KHP(s) → K+(aq)+HP−(aq) Although ionization (the formation of ions) occurs as a result of acid dissociation for most weak acids, KHP ionizes before acid dissociation occurs. In other words, HP− is a weak acid ion. Part C If you wanted to determine how much KOH (potassium hydroxide; a strong base) was dissolved in water, you could titrate it with a known amount of KHP (potassium hydrogen phthalate; a weak acid) until a color change indicates that the base is completely neutralized. The molecular equation below depicts this neutralization reaction. KHP(aq)+KOH(aq)→K2P(aq)+H2O(l) Write the net ionic equation that depicts the neutralization of the base by potassium hydrogen phthalate. Instead of using the entire chemical formula of phthalate, use HP− to represent the acidic hydrogen phthalate ion and P2− to represent the phthalate ion. Express your answer as a net ionic equation including phases.
