Answer:
relative proportions of the elements in a chemical reaction
The chemical equation is:
<span>HCO3^ -> H^+ + CO3^2- </span>
We know that the formula
for Ka is:
Ka = [H^+][CO3^2-]/[HCO3^-]
log Ka = log[H^+] + log[CO3^2-]/[HCO3^-]
pKa = pH - log[CO3^2-]/[HCO3^-]
log[CO3^2-]/[HCO3^-] = pH - pKa = 10.75 - 10.329 = 0.421
<span>[CO3^2-]/[HCO3^-] = Antilog (0.421) = 2.636 </span>
Answer:
<span>2.636</span>
