MCQ
$0.1\, M$ formic acid solution is titrated against $0.1 \,M \,NaOH$ solution. What would  be the difference in $pH$ between $1/5$ and $4/5$ stages of neutralization of acid ?
  • A
    $2 \log \,3/4$
  • B
    $2 \log\, 1/5$
  • C
    $\log\, 1/3$
  • $2 \log \,4$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$2 \log \,4$
d
When acetic acid is titrated with NaOH it will behaave as Buffer solution.

We know in case of acidic buffer $\mathrm{pH}=\mathrm{pK}_{\mathrm{a}}+\log \frac{[\mathrm{Salt}]}{[\mathrm{Acid}]}$

$\mathrm{pK}_{\mathrm{a}}$ of acetic acid $=4.77$

In case of $\frac{1}{5}$ th Titration $-$

$[$ Salt $]=\frac{x}{5}$

[Acid $]=\frac{4 x}{5}$

$\mathrm{pH}_{1}=4.77+\log \frac{1}{4}$

In case of $\frac{4}{5}$ th Titration -

$\mathrm{pH}_{2}=4.77+\log \frac{4}{1}$

Difference in $\mathrm{pH}=2 \log 4$
