Question
Part A
Write the net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when a solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl) is mixed with a solution of sodium formate (NaCHO_2) .
Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer.
Part B: Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction.
express using 2 sig figs
Part C:
Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of Na^+, Cl^-, H^+, CHO_2^- and HCHO_2 when 50.0mL of 0.35M NaCHO_2.
express using 2 sig figs, enter answers separated by commas
Explanation / Answer
A) HCOO-(aq) + H+(aq) <----------> HCOOH (l)
B)K = Kw/Ka(formic acid) = 10^-14/10^-3.77 = 5.89 x10^-11
C)
