(a)
Explanation of Solution
Initially 1.0 M of 50 mL glycine hydrochloride is present. When 25 mL of NaOH is added to it, the following reaction takes place:
The pH of the solution can be calculated using the Henderson-Hesselbalch equation as follows:
Here,
Since, volume of the solution is same, number of moles can be used at the place of concentration.
Now, putting the values,
Thus, the pH when 25 mL of NaOH is added is 2.36.
Now, when 50 mL of NaOH is added the reaction can be represented as follows:

Further reaction takes place:
The pH can be calculated as follows:
Here,
Thus,
or,

(b)
Explanation of Solution
It is assumed that initially the pH is 1.2 and at second equivalent point is 11.7. Here, initial pH means when volume of NaOH is 0.0 mL and second equivalent point means when it is 100 mL. The values can be summarized as follows:
Volume of NaOH added (mL) | pH |
0.0 | 1.2 |
25.0 | 2.36 |
50.0 | 5.04 |
75.0 | 9.77 |
100.0 | 11.7 |
Thus, the titration curve indicating the major amino species present at each point will be as follows:

Explanation of Solution
The titration curve is as follows:
From the above titration curve, it can be seen that when 50 mL of NaOH is added, the majority of amino acid molecules have net charge equal to zero. At this volume corresponds to pH value 5.04. This is known as isoelectric point and denoted as pI and the point on graph corresponds to the equivalent point.
(d)
Interpretation: The pH when the net charge of the major amino acid species is +1/2 and -1/2 needs to be determined.

Here, salt is conjugate base of the acid.
(d)
Explanation of Solution
The titration curve is as follows:
The point when the net charge of the major amino acid species is +1/2 corresponds to first half equivalent point. The volume of NaOH added at this point is 25 mL and corresponding pH is 2.36.
Similarly, the point when the net charge of the major amino acid species is -1/2 corresponds to second half equivalent point. The volume of NaOH added at this point is 75 mL and corresponding pH is 9.77.
