Nitrous acid<span> dissociates as follows:
</span>
HNO₂(s) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq)
According to the equation, an acid constant has the following form:
Ka = [H⁺] × [NO₂⁻ ] / [HNO₂]
From pH, we can calculate the concentration of H⁺ and NO₂⁻:
[H⁺] = 10^-pH = 10^-2.63 = 0.00234 M = [NO₂⁻]
Now, the acid constant can be calculated:
Ka = 0.00234 x 0.00234 / 0.015 = 3.66 x 10⁻⁴
And finally,
pKa = -log Ka = 3.44
The neutral atom of lead must have 82 protons while ions can have b or less than 82.
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus of the element.
Also, for neutral atoms, the number of protons equals the number of electrons.
In ionic form, the number of protons/electrons of an atom may vary and be different from that of the neutral form.
Positive charges mean that the ion has less proton than its neutral version while negative charges mean that it has more electrons than its neutral version.
Thus, the neutral atom of lead will contain an equal number of protons as the electrons while its ionic form can have more or less than 82 protons.

The balanced chemical reaction would be as follows:
2H2O2 = 2H2O + O2
We are given the amount of the peroxide that decomposes. Using this as the starting point for the calculations, we can determine the amount of O2 produced. We do as follows:
14.3 mol H2O2 ( 1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O2 ) = 7.15 mol O2 produced
