The acid-dissociation constant for benzoic acid (C6H5COOH) is 6.3×10−5. Calculate the equilibrium concentration of H3O+ in the s

raketka [301]

Answer : The equilibrium concentration of $H_3O^+$ in the solution is, $2.1\times 10^{-3}M$

Explanation :

The dissociation of acid reaction is:

$C_6H_5COOH+H_2O\rightarrow H_3O^++C_6H_5COO^-$

Initial conc. c 0 0

At eqm. c-x x x

Given:

c = $7.0\times 10^{-2}M$

$K_a=6.3\times 10^{-5}$

The expression of dissociation constant of acid is:

$K_a=\frac{[H_3O^+][C_6H_5COO^-]}{[C_6H_5COOH]}$

$K_a=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(c-x)}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$6.3\times 10^{-5}=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{[(7.0\times 10^{-2})-x]}$

$x=2.1\times 10^{-3}M$

Thus, the equilibrium concentration of $H_3O^+$ in the solution is, $2.1\times 10^{-3}M$
