When the Pka for formic acid = 3.77
and Pka = -㏒ Ka
3.77 = -㏒ Ka
∴Ka = 1.7x10^-4
when Ka = [H+][HCOO-}/[HCOOH]
when we have Ka = 1.7x10^-4 &[HCOOH] = 0.21 m
so by substitution: by using ICE table value
1.7x10^-4 = X*X / (0.21-X)
(1.7x10^-4)*(0.21-X) = X^2 by solving this equation for X
∴X = 0.0059
∴[H+] = 0.0059
∴PH= -㏒ [H+]
= -㏒ 0.0059
= 2.23
Answer:
Decomposition
Explanation:
A decomposition reaction is a type of reaction in which a compound is broken down into its constituent elements sometimes under the influence of heat.
When iron (III) hydroxide is heated,new products are formed according to the equation; 2Fe(OH)3 -----------> Fe2O3 + 3H2O.
This is a thermal decomposition reaction.
Answer:
Iron
