Problem 24 Express your answer using two significant figures. About 23% of the acid in a 0.10 M solution of a weak acid dissociates to form ions Submit My Answers Grye Up Part B What is the OH concentration? Express your answer using two significant figures. Submit My Answers Give Up Part C What is the pH of the solution? Express your answer using two decimal places. OExplanation / Answer
a)
Let the acid be HA
HA +H2O <—> H3O+(aq) + A-(aq)
0.10 0 0 (initial)
0.10-x x x (at equilibrium)
% dissociation = x*100 / initial concentration
23 = x*100/0.10
x = 0.023 M
So,
[H3O+] = x = 0.023 M
Answer: 2.3*10^-2 M
b)
[OH-] = (1.0*10^-14) / [H3O+]
[OH-] = (1.0*10^-14)/(2.3*10^-2)
[OH-] = 4.3*10^-13 M
Answer: 4.3*10^-13 M
c)
pH = -log [H3O+]
= -log (2.3*10^-2)
= 1.64
Answer: 1.64
