The concentration of ClO₂⁻ at equilibrium if the initial concentration of HClO₂ is 0.0654.
<h3>What is concentration?</h3>
The concentration of any substance is the quantity of that substance in per square of the space or container.
The reaction is
HClO₂ + H₂O <=> H₃O⁺ + ClO₂⁻
The pH is 0.454 M
Ka = [H₃O⁺][ClO₂⁻ ] / [HClO₂]
2. 25 × 10⁻² m = [x][x] / 0.454-x]
2 + 0.011 - 0.004994 = 0
solve the quadratic equation
x = 0.0654 = [H3O+] = [ClO2-]
pH = -log (H3O+)
pH = -log(0.0654)
pH = 1.2
equilibrium concentrations of
[HClO2] = 0.454 -x = 0.454 -0.0654 = 0.3886 M
[ClO2- ] = x = 0.0654
Thus, the equilibrium concentrations is 0.0654.
