Correct Answer:
(1) At the beginning, ionization of the weak acid determines the pH.
HA H2O A H3O
(2) Halfway to the equivalence point, half the acid has been converted into its conjugate base.
The pH can be directly determined by the equilibrium involving acid ionization.
HA H2O A H3O pH pKa since [HA] [A]
(3) At the equivalence point, all the acid essentially has been converted into its conjugate base. The pH is determined by base ionization.
A H2O HA OH
(4) Past the equivalence point, excess strong base has been added. The pH is determined by the concentration of excess hydroxide in the solution.
As the pH increases, the solubility of ________ would increase.
