Chapter 7: After Equivalence Point | CHM 214 | 069
TLDRThe video script discusses the process of a titration involving silver and chloride, focusing on the point just past the equivalence point where all silver has reacted with chloride, leaving extra silver in the solution. It explains how to calculate the concentration of this excess silver and its significance in relation to the precipitation and solubility equilibrium. The script emphasizes that the point of equivalence is determined by the equilibrium constant of the reaction, not by the volumes or concentrations used, and that this value remains consistent for a given reaction.
Takeaways

Q & A
What is the significance of the equivalence point in a titration?
-The equivalence point in a titration is the exact moment when the reactants have completely reacted with each other, resulting in a stoichiometric balance. At this point, the concentration of the analyte can be accurately determined without being affected by the volumes or concentrations of the reactants used.
What happens just past the equivalence point during a titration?
-Just past the equivalence point, there is excess titrant present. In the context of the script, extra silver is added which does not react with the chloride present. This excess silver is considered as excess and does not contribute to the reaction but affects the concentration calculations.
How is the concentration of silver calculated after adding excess silver?
-The concentration of silver after adding excess is calculated by determining the moles of the excess silver (0.1 millimoles in the example) and dividing it by the total volume of the solution (25 mL + 52 mL = 77 mL). The resulting concentration is then 1.3 times 10 to the minus 3 molar.
What is the role of an indicator in a titration?
-An indicator in a titration is a chemical that changes color at or near the equivalence point, signaling to the experimenter that the reaction is complete. In the script, it is mentioned that the indicator would have already changed color before reaching the point of excess silver.
What is the significance of the PAG (Potential of the Aggressor) value?
-The PAG value is a measure of the potential of the titrant to continue the reaction. It is a useful metric to understand the progress of the titration and the point at which the reaction is complete. At the equivalence point, the PAG value does not depend on the volumes or concentrations used in the titration.
How does the concentration of silver change as we move from before, at, and after the equivalence point?
-Before the equivalence point, the concentration of silver changes as the reaction progresses. At the equivalence point, the concentration of silver is at its highest and is controlled by the equilibrium constant (ksp in the case of silver chloride). After the equivalence point, the concentration of silver decreases due to the addition of excess silver, which does not react further.
What is the relationship between the concentration of silver and the volume of the titrant added?
-The concentration of silver is inversely proportional to the volume of the titrant added. As more titrant is added, the concentration of silver decreases, especially after the equivalence point when excess silver is present.
Why is it important to understand the titration curve?
-Understanding the titration curve is crucial for accurately determining the equivalence point and the concentration of the analyte. It helps in analyzing the progress of the reaction and making precise measurements in experimental settings.
How does the solubility product constant (ksp) influence the concentration of silver in the reaction?
-The solubility product constant (ksp) controls the concentration of silver when it is in equilibrium with its precipitate form (like silver chloride). At the equivalence point, the concentration of silver is determined by the ksp, indicating a balance between the dissolved and precipitated forms of silver.
What is the general trend observed in a titration curve?
-The general trend observed in a titration curve is a sharp change in the PAG value or concentration at the equivalence point, followed by a more gradual change before and after this point. The curve can be used to determine the precision of the titration and the accuracy of the measured concentrations.
How does the titration curve change when excess titrant is added?
-When excess titrant is added, the titration curve shows a sharp decrease in the PAG value or concentration of the analyte, indicating that the reaction has gone beyond the stoichiometric balance and excess reactant is present in the solution.
Outlines
🧪 Chemistry of Silver and Chloride Reaction
This paragraph discusses the chemical process occurring just past the equivalence point in a titration experiment involving silver and chloride. At this stage, all the silver has reacted with the chloride, leaving an excess of unreacted silver. The speaker calculates the concentration of this excess silver, which is determined by the volume and molarity of the added titrant. The concentration is found to be quite high, even after the equivalence point, and the significance of the solubility product constant (ksp) is discussed in relation to the concentration of silver. The paragraph concludes with a molar concentration calculation, resulting in 1.3 times 10 to the minus 3 molar, and a discussion on the overall curve of the titration, highlighting the sharp change in concentration at the equivalence point.
📈 Titration Curve and Equivalence Point
This paragraph focuses on the concept of the equivalence point in a titration and how it relates to the titration curve. The speaker explains that the point of greatest interest (pag) does not depend on the volumes or concentrations used in the titration, but is instead controlled by the equilibrium constant of the reaction. This means that, regardless of the concentrations or volumes involved, the value at the equivalence point will always be the same for a given chemical reaction. The speaker also notes that this consistency does not hold true before and after the equivalence point, where differences in concentration can lead to variations in the titration curve. The paragraph emphasizes the importance of understanding the relationship between the chemical reaction and the observed changes in concentration during a titration.

Highlights
The discussion focuses on the titration process, particularly the point just past the equivalence point where all the silver has reacted with the chloride.
At the point past the equivalence point, there is extra silver that did not react with the chloride, which is considered as excess.
In an actual titration, the indicators would have changed color by the time this extra silver is present, indicating that further titration is unnecessary unless measuring the concentration of silver with an electrode.
The first 50 milliliters of silver react, and the excess silver is the extra 2 milliliters, which is the focus for calculating moles.
The calculation for the moles of excess silver involves multiplying the extra volume (2 mL) by the concentration (0.05 mmoles/mL), resulting in 0.1 mmoles.
The concentration of silver is determined by dividing the moles (0.1 mmoles) by the total volume (25 mL + 52 mL).
The calculated concentration of silver comes out to be 1.3 times 10 to the negative 3rd molar, after checking the math.
The PAG (Potential of the Agar Gel) value at this point is equal to 2.89, even past the equivalence point.
The overall curve of the titration is discussed, with the PAG on the y-axis and volume in milliliters on the x-axis.
The equivalence point is determined to be at 50 milliliters, with a PAG value of 4.87.
The general trend of the titration curve is described, with a very sharp curve at the equivalence point and a continuation beyond it.
The presence of excess chloride and silver at different points in the titration and how Ksp (solubility product constant) controls the concentration of silver is discussed.
At the equivalence point, the PAG does not depend on the volumes or concentrations involved, which is a general truth for any titration.
The value of PAG or the concentration monitored will only be controlled by the equilibrium constant associated with the reaction.
It is emphasized that the value at the equivalence point will always be the same for a given reaction, regardless of the concentrations or volumes used.
The impact of concentration differences before and after the equivalence point is noted, with variations possible for the same titration curve.
