Yes to the first question. (H^+) = 10^-pH. At the half way point, which is what you had, then Ka = (H^+ or pKa = pH but that is only true at the half way point. You can see for a weak acid, such as HA HA ==> H^+ + A^- and Ka(H^+)(A^-)/(HA). Solving for (H^+) we get (H...

I and IV are strong acids. HF is the most common weak acid, and this has to do with electronegativity of F. LiOH is a strong base, I think. And HCLO2 is a weak acid; O's have to outnumber the H's by two or more.

Calculate [acetate] of 0.057 mol/L solution of acetic acid of Ka = 1.76x10^-5 i know to find Ka it's: Ka= products/reactants so i tried doing an ICE table with the equation to be: CH3CO2 + H2O <--> CH3COOH + H am i on the right track? if not...help please!

Yes and no. (acid) is not 1.8E-5; that's ka for acetic acid. You put 250*0.56 for base and mL*0.500 for acid; solve for mL acid.

Write the benzoic acid ionization. Write the Ka expression. Use pH = =log(H^+) to calculate (H^+). Substitute into Ka expression and determine Ka.

HOCl + H2O ==> H3O^+ + OCl^- Kiki--I just don't understand what your problem is with HOCl and HOBr. These are weak acids just like acetic acid, oxalic acid, phosphoric acid, etc. They ionize partially and the have Ka. Their salts ionize in water just as acetate ion ...

Sodium iodate is the salt of a strong base (NaOH) and a weak acid (HIO3). So this salt hydrolyzes as in the last problem I posted. The only difference is that this is a STRONG weak acid with Ka a relatively large value of about 0.18 or so. You need to confirm that. That means ...

What is the [H+] of a 0.1 M malonic acid with a Ka of 10^-9 solution? I thought it was just (Ka x Ca)^(0.5), but that doesn't get me a pH of 5.

-log Ka = pKa which may or may not be = pH. Ka is a measure of how strong/weak the acid is.

For the salt of a weak acid and a weak base, (H^+) = sqrt(KwKa/Kb). For NH4OCl, that is about 4 x 10^-9 or pK about 8.4 (which is slightly basic). What it boils down to, if you look at the equation, is the Kw part will give neutral. If Ka = Kb, the solution is neutral. If Ka&...
