Consider a solution containing .100 m fluoride ions and .126m hydrogen fluoride. the concentration of fluoride ions after the addition of 5.00 ml of .0100 m hcl to 25.0 ml of this solution is

Given:

Concentration of Fluoride ions = 0.100 M
Concentration of Hydrogen Fluoride = 0.126 M

Asked: Concentration of fluoride ions after the addition of 5ml of 0.0100 M HCl to 25 mL of the solution

Assume: 50:50 ratio of fluoride ions and HF

12.5ml*0.1mol/L *1L/1000mL + 12.5*0.126mol/L * 1L/1000mL = 2.825x10^-3 moles F-

5ml * 0.01 mol/L *1L/1000mL = 5x10^-5 moles

Assume: Volume additive

Final concentration = 2.825x10^-3 + 5x10^-5 moles/ 30 ml * 1000ml/L =0.0958 M
