When 100 mL of 1.0 M HCl was mixed with 100 mL of 1.0 M NaOH in an insulated beaker at constant pressure, a temperature increase of 5.7oC{5.7}^{o}C was measured for the beaker and its contents (Expt.1). Because the enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid with a strong base is a constant (−57.0kJmol−1)( - 57.0kJmo{l}^{- 1} ) , this experiment could be used to measure the calorimeter constant. In a second experiment (Expt. 2), 100 mL of 2.0 M acetic acid (Ka=2.0×10−5)( {K}_{a} = 2.0 \times {10}^{- 5} ) was mixed with 100 mL of 1.0 M NaOH (under identical conditions to Expt. 1) where a temperature rise of 5.6oC{5.6}^{o}C was measured. (Consider heat capacity of all solutions as 4.2Jg−1K−14.2J{g}^{- 1}{K}^{- 1} and density of all solutions as 1.0gmL−11.0gm{L}^{- 1} )
The pH of the solution after Expt. 2 is

Options

  1. A2.82.8
  2. B4.74.7
  3. C5.05.0
  4. D7.07.0

Correct answer

B. 4.74.7

Step-by-step solution

Final solution contain 0.1 mole of CH3COOHC{H}_{3}COOH and CH3COONaC{H}_{3}COONa each.
Hence it is a buffer solution.
pH=pKa+log[CH3COO−][CH3COOH]pH = p{K}_{a} + log\dfrac{[ C{H}_{3}CO{O}^{-} ]}{[ C{H}_{3}COOH ]}
=5−log⁡2+log0.10.1=4.7= 5 - \log 2 + log\dfrac{0.1}{0.1} = 4.7
