Section 15.1
Solutions of Acids or Bases Containing a
Common Ion
Common Ion Effect
 Shift in equilibrium position that occurs because of
the addition of an ion already involved in the
equilibrium reaction.
 An application of Le Châtelier’s principle.

Section 15.1
Solutions of Acids or Bases Containing a
Common Ion
Example
HCN(aq) + H2O(l)
H3O+(aq) + CN-(aq)
 Addition of NaCN will shift the equilibrium to the
left because of the addition of CN-, which is already
involved in the equilibrium reaction.
 A solution of HCN and NaCN is less acidic than a
solution of HCN alone.
Section 15.2
Buffered Solutions
Key Points about Buffered Solutions
 Buffered Solution – resists a change in pH.
 They are weak acids or bases containing a common ion.
 After addition of strong acid or base, deal with
stoichiometry first, then the equilibrium.

HA 
 For a particular buffering system (conjugate acid–base
pair), all solutions that have the same ratio [A–] / [HA]
will have the same pH.

EXERCISE!

acid (HC2H3O2) and 0.85 M sodium acetate (NaC2H3O2)?

Buffered Solutions
Buffered Solution Characteristics
 Buffers contain relatively large concentrations of a weak
acid and corresponding conjugate base.
 Added H+ reacts to completion with the weak base.
 Added OH- reacts to completion with the weak acid.
Copyright © Cengage Learning. All rights reserved
54
Section 15.2
Buffered Solutions
Buffered Solution Characteristics
 The pH in the buffered solution is determined by the
ratio of the concentrations of the weak acid and weak
base. As long as this ratio remains virtually constant, the
pH will remain virtually constant. This will be the case as
long as the concentrations of the buffering materials
(HA and A– or B and BH+) are large compared with
amounts of H+ or OH– added.
Copyright © Cengage Learning. All rights reserved
55
Section 15.3
Buffering Capacity
 The amount of protons or hydroxide ions the buffer can
absorb without a significant change in pH.
 Determined by the magnitudes of [HA] and [A–].
 A buffer with large capacity contains large
concentrations of the buffering components.
Copyright © Cengage Learning. All rights reserved
56
Section 15.3
Buffering Capacity
 Optimal buffering occurs when [HA] is equal to [A–].
 It is for this condition that the ratio [A–] / [HA] is most
resistant to change when H+ or OH– is added to the
buffered solution.

Section 15.3
Buffering Capacity
Choosing a Buffer
 pKa of the weak acid to be used in the buffer should be
as close as possible to the desired pH.

Section 15.4
Titrations and pH Curves
Titration Curve
 Plotting the pH of the solution being analyzed as a
function of the amount of titrant added.
 Equivalence (Stoichiometric) Point – point in the
titration when enough titrant has been added to react
exactly with the substance in solution being titrated.

Precipitation and Qualitative Analysis
Precipitation (Mixing Two Solutions of Ions)
 Q > Ksp; precipitation occurs and will continue until
the concentrations are reduced to the point that
they satisfy Ksp.
 Q < Ksp; no precipitation occurs.

Precipitation and Qualitative Analysis
Selective Precipitation (Mixtures of Metal Ions)
 Use a reagent whose anion forms a precipitate with only
one or a few of the metal ions in the mixture.
 Example:
 Solution contains Ba2+ and Ag+ ions.
 Adding NaCl will form a precipitate with Ag+ (AgCl),
while still leaving Ba2+ in solution.

 At a low pH, [S2–] is relatively low and only the very

Equilibria Involving Complex Ions
Complex Ions and Solubility
 Two strategies for dissolving a water–insoluble ionic
solid.
 If the anion of the solid is a good base, the solubility
is greatly increased by acidifying the solution.
 In cases where the anion is not sufficiently basic, the
ionic solid often can be dissolved in a solution
containing a ligand that forms stable complex ions
with its cation.
