Write a chemical equation for Ba(OH )2 (aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition.

1 answer:

5 0

Balanced chemical reaction: Ba(OH)₂(aq) → Ba²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq).
According to the Arrhenius definition barium hydroxide is base.
According this theory acids are substances which produce hydrogen ions in water solution, bases are substances which produce hydroxide ions in solution. Acids and bases when react (neutralisation) produce salt and water.

What is the % dissociation of a solution of acetic acid if at equilibrium the solution has a pH = 4.74 and a pKa = 4.74?

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

$\% diss = 50\%$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, when considering weak acids which have an associated percent dissociation, we first need to set up the ionization reaction and the equilibrium expression:

$HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-\\\\Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}$

Now, by introducing x as the reaction extent which also represents the concentration of both H+ and A-, we have:

$Ka=\frac{x^2}{[HA]_0-x} =10^{-4.74}=1.82x10^{-5}$

Thus, it is possible to find x given the pH as shown below:

$x=10^{-pH}=10^{-4.74}=1.82x10^{-5}M$

So that we can calculate the initial concentration of the acid:

$\frac{(1.82x10^{-5})^2}{[HA]_0-1.82x10^{-5}} =1.82x10^{-5}\\\\\frac{1.82x10^{-5}}{[HA]_0-1.82x10^{-5}} =1\\\\$

$[HA]_0=3.64x10^{-5}M$

Therefore, the percent dissociation turns out to be:

$\% diss=\frac{x}{[HA]_0}*100\% \\\\\% diss=\frac{1.82x10^{-5}M}{3.64x10^{-5}M}*100\% \\\\\% diss = 50\%$

Best regards!
