If you see distilled water, it's a pure substance. That means that there are only water molecules in the liquid. A mixture would be a glass of water with other things dissolved inside, like one of those powders you take if you get sick or Kool-Aid.

A monoprotic weak acid when dissolved in water is 0.66% dissociated and produces a solution with a pH of 3.04. Calculate the Ka

raketka [301]

Answer:

Ka = 6.02x10⁻⁶

Explanation:

The equilibrium that takes place is:

HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻

Ka = [H⁺][A⁻]/[HA]

We calculate [H⁺] from the pH:

pH = -log[H⁺]

[H⁺] = $10^{-pH}$

[H⁺] = 9.12x10⁻⁴ M

Keep in mind that [H⁺]=[A⁻].

As for [HA], we know the acid is 0.66% dissociated, in other words:

[HA] * 0.66/100 = [H⁺]

We calculate [HA]:

[HA] = 0.138 M

Finally we calculate the Ka:

Ka = $\frac{[9.12x10^{-4}]*[9.12x10^{-4}]}{[0.138]}$ = 6.02x10⁻⁶
