Expert verified

(b) For 20 mL the value ofpMn2+is 2.175.

Step by step solution

01

Introduction

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

Titration  Reaction:Mn2++EDTAMnY2Kf=1013.89At   pH   8  αY4=4.2×103Table121

02

Determine equilibrium constant

Kf'=αY4×Kf=4.2×103×1013.89=3.3×1011

Equivalence point=50 mL

03

Determine the value of pMn2+

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

=Fraction remaining × Initial concentration × Dilution factor

If 20 mL solution is added then the reaction will be 20/50 completed as the equivalence point is at 50 mL. Then the metal (Mn) concentration will be

Mn2+=5020500.02M2525+20=6.67×103M

Therefore, the value of pMn2+

pMn2+=logMn2+=log6.67×103=2.175

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

ϕ=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".
