Titration Curve

weak base with strong acid

The START of the titration is the same as


a regular (type 1) weak base problem. You
know Kb and [B] so you can calculate pH.
buffer zone
a “type 2” calculation B + H2O BH+ + OH-

conjugate ratios are known,


use Henderson-Hasselbach
to calculate pH. pH’s are
generally above 7 here.
pH = 7.00 pH = 7.00
pH
The equivalence point
(endpoint) is the same as a regular
(type 1) salt of a weak base problem overshoot
(BHX). You know [BH+] and you
can calculate pH. Also note that the This region is calculated simply
pH must be less than 7 due to the by determining the amount of
ionization of BH+.
H+ in EXCESS that has been added.
BH+ B + H+ No equilibrium calculations necessary.

mL of acid added

The half-way point


is important! pH = pKa

After you have determined the equivalence point for


(endpoint) of the titration, go to half that value. BH+ !
The pH at the half-titration point is equal to the
pKa of the weak acid, BH+. To get the pKb of the
base (B) you MUST subtract the pKa from 14. The
reason for this is that the pOH is actually what
equals the pKb.
endpoint
(complete titration)
pKb = 14 - pKa half titration
