If you wanted to determine how much KOH

KOH (potassium hydroxide; a strong base) was dissolved in water, you could titrate it with a known amount of KHP

KHP (potassium hydrogen phthalate; a weak acid) until a color change indicates that the base is completely neutralized. The molecular equation below depicts this neutralization reaction.

 

KHP(aq)+KOH(aq)→K

2

P(aq)+H

2

O(l)

KHP(aq)+KOH(aq)→K2P(aq)+H2O(l)

Write the net ionic equation that depicts the neutralization of the base KOH

KOH by KHP

KHP. Instead of using the entire chemical formula of phthalate, use HP

HP− to represent the acidic hydrogen phthalate ion and P

2−

P2− to represent the phthalate ion.

The Molecular Neutralisation Reaction of Potassium Hydrogen Phthalate ion and Sodium Hydroxide is :

KHC8H4O4 (aq) + NaOH(aq) → KNaC8H4O4(aq) + H2O(l)

Or

KHP (aq) + NaOH (aq) → KNaP(aq) + H2O(l)

The net ionic equation is:

HC8H4O4-(aq) + OH-(aq) → C8H4O42-(aq) + H2O(l)

Or

HP-(aq) + OH-(aq)→ P2-(aq) + H2O(l)
