dissociation of water

The dissociation of water can be represented by:

H2O H+ + OH- In pure water the concentrations of

H+ and OH- ions are equal and at 25°C both have the values of 1 x 10-7 mol/l.

Page 5: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

dissociation of water

The hydrogen ion concentration range is from 1 mol/l for a strong acid down to 1 x 10-14 mol/l for a strong base.

To avoid the use of such low values pH has been introduced as a more convenient measure of hydrogen ion concentration.

Dissociation (or ionization) constants and pKa:

In solutions of weak acids or weak bases equilibria exist between

undissociated molecules and their ions.

Page 13: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

Dissociation (or ionization) constants and pKa:

In a solution of a weakly acidic drug HA the equilibrium may be represented by:

HA H+ + A-

Page 14: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

Dissociation (or ionization) constants and pKa:

The protonation of a weakly basic drug B can be represented by :

B + H+ BH+

Page 15: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

Dissociation (or ionization) constants and pKa:

Such equilibrium do not occur in solutions of strong acids or bases in water, why?

because they are completely ionized.

Page 16: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

The ionization constant (dissociation constant) Ka of a weak acid can be obtained by applying the Law of Mass Action:

[H+] [A-] Ka = [HA]

pKa = the negative logarithm of Ka

pH = the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion conc. [H+]

[HA] pKa = pH + log [A-]

Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:A general equation that is applicable to any acidic drug with one ionizable group where: Cu = conc. of the unionized ; Ci = conc. of the ionized species

Cu pKa = pH + log Ci

Page 17: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

The ionization constant (dissociation constant) Ka of a protonated weak base is given by

[H+] [B] Ka = [BH+]

Taking the negative log of this equation:

[BH+] pKa = pH + log [B]

Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:A general equation that is applicable to any weak basic drug with one ionizable group where: Ci = conc. of protonated ; Cu = conc. of the unionized species

Ci pKa = pH + log Cu

Page 18: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

The degree of ionization of a drug in a solution can be calculated from the Henderson-Hasselbalch equations for weak acids and bases if the pKa of the drug and the pH of the solution are known

Such calculations are useful in determining the degree of ionization of drugs in various parts of the GIT and in the plasma

Examples

1. The pKa of the weakly acidic drug sulphapyridine is about 8.0

and if the pH of the intestinal contents is 5.0 then the ratio of unionized:ionized drug is given by:

Cu log = pKa - pH = 8 – 5 = 3

Ci

Cu:Ci = antilog 3 = 103 : 1

Page 19: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

The pKa value of aspirin, which is a weak acid, is about 3.5, and the pH of the gastric contents is 2.0

Cu log = pKa - pH = 3.5 - 2.0 = 1.5 Cithe ratio of the conc. of unionized acetylsalicyclic acid to acetylsalicylate anion is given by:

Cu:Ci = antilog 1.5 = 31.62 :1

The pH of plasma is 7.4 so that the ratio of unionized:ionized aspirin in this medium is given by:

Cu log = pKa - pH = 3.5 – 7.4 = -3.9 Ci

Cu:Ci = antilog -3.9 = 1.259 x 10-4: 1

Buffered Solutions

A buffered solution or buffer is a solution that resists a change in pH upon addition of small amounts of strong acid or strong base.

Page 22: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

Composition and Action of Buffered Solutions

A buffer consists of a mixture of a weak acid (HX) and its conjugate base (X–).

HX(aq) ↔ H+(aq) + X–(aq)Thus a buffer contains both: An acidic species (to neutralize OH–)

and A basic species (to neutralize H+).

Buffer Capacity

A buffer counteracts the change in pH of a solution upon the addition of a strong acid, a strong base, or other agents that tend to alter the hydrogen ion concentration.

Buffer capacity β: buffer efficiency, buffer index or buffer value Is the resistance of a buffer to pH changes

upon the addition of a strong acid or base.Definition:It can be defined as being equal to the amount of strong acid or strong base , expressed as moles of H +or OH- ions, required to change the pH of one litre of the buffer by one pH unite.Maximum buffer capacity (βmax) obtain when ratio of acid to salt =

1 i.e. pKa = pH

Page 25: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

Definition The ratio of increase of strong base (or acid) to small

change in pH brought about by this addition.

β = Δ B Δ pH

ΔB = the small increment in gram equiv./liter of strong base

added to the buffer solution to produce a pH change Δ pH = pH change

Page 26: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

The buffer capacity of the solution has a value of 1:

when the addition of 1 gram equiv. of strong base (or acid) to

1 liter of the buffer solution results in a change of 1 pH unit.

Ex: Acetate buffer contains: 0.1 mole each of acetic acid & sodium acetate in 1 liter of solution. a) 0.01 mole portions of NaOH is added

b) The conc. of Na acetate (the [salt] in buffer equation) ↑ by 0.01 mol/l

& the conc. of acetic acid [acid] ↓ by 0.01 mol/l

because each increment of base converts 0.01 mole of acetic acid into 0.01 mole of sodium acetate according to the reaction. HAc + NaOH NaAc + H2O (0.1 – 0.01) (0.01) (0.1 + 0.01)

Page 27: Solution properties pH pH Acid Acid Base Base Ionization of water Ionization of water pH scale pH scale significance significance pKa pKa Weak acid, base.

The changes in concentration of the salt and the acid by the addition of a base are represented in the buffer equation by using the modified form pH = pKa + log [salt ] + [base] [acid] - [base]

Before the addition of the first portion of NaOH, the pH of the buffer solution is

pH = 4.76 + log ( 0.1 + 0 ) = 4.76 ( 0.1 – 0 )

The buffer capacity is not a fixed value for a given buffer

system, but depends on the amount of base added.

With the addition of more NaOH, the buffer capacity

decreases rapidly, and, when sufficient base has been

added the acid convert completely into sodium ions and

acetate ions

The buffer has it’s greatest capacity before any base is

added where [salt] / [acid] = 1, and according to equation,

pH = pKa.

The buffer capacity is influenced by an increase in the total

conc. of the buffer constituents since a greater conc. of salt

and acid provides a greater alkaline and acid reserve.

The equation permits the calculation of the buffer capacity

at any hydrogen ion concentration, i.e. when no acid or base

has been added to the buffer

Example :

If hydrogen ion concentration is 1.75 x 10-5, pH = 4.76

what is the capacity of the buffer containing 0.10 mole of

each of acetic acid and sodium acetate per liter of solution ?

The total concentration , C = [acid] + [salt], is 0.20 mol/l and

the dissociation constant Ka is 1.75 x 10-5

Prepare a buffer solution of pH 5 having a capacity of 0.02.

1-One chooses a weak acid having a pKa close to the pH desired. Acetic acid, pKa= 4.76 is suitable in

this case

2-The ratio of salt and acid required to produce a pH of 5 was found to be [salt] / [acid] = 1.74/ 1

The influence of concentration on buffer capacity .

The buffer capacity is affected not only by the (salt)/(acid) ratio but also by the total concentrations of acid and salt . As shown previously in the table.when 0.01 mole of base was added to a 0.1 molar acetate buffer, the pH increased from 4.76 to 4.85 or a ∆ pH of 0.09 If the concentration of acetic acid and sodium acetate is raised to 1 molar ,the pH of the original buffer solution remains at about 4.76 , but now upon the addition of 0.01 mole of base it becomes 4.77 and ∆ pH of only 0.01 Therefore, an increase in the concentration of the buffer components results in a greater buffer capacity or efficiency.

In summary , the buffer capacity depends on

)a (the value of the ratio salt/acid , β increase as the value approaches unity.

)b (the magnitude of the individual concentrations of the buffer components, β increase as C increased

Maximum buffer capacity.

The maximum buffer capacity occurs when pH = pKa or when (H3O+) = Ka

max = 2.303 C (H3O+) 2 = 0.576 β 2 )H3O+ (2

β max = 0.576 C

Where C is the total buffer concentration

Example: What is the maximum buffer capacity of an acetate buffer

with a total concentration of 0.20 mol/l? β max = 0.576 C

= 0.01152 = 0.01
