- An Acid Was Added To Pure Water It Dissociates To Form H And The Base Form As Shown In The Reaction Below Hypothetica 1 (34.98 KiB) Viewed 42 times
An acid was added to pure water. It dissociates to form H+ and the base form as shown in the reaction below. Hypothetical acid: HA(aq) + H+(aq) + A-(aq) At equilibrium, the concentration of the acid form was found to be 5.6E-3M. If the pka of the acid is 5.25, what is the pH at equilibrium? Report your pH result to the hundredths place. Note: Since only the acid was added to pure water, the only way to form H+ and A- is by the reaction above, therefore, they must be present in equal concentrations.
