As a chemist for an agricultural products company, you have just developed a new herbicide,"Herbigon," that you think has the po

tential to kill weeds effectively. A sparingly soluble salt, Herbigon is dissolved in 1 M acetic acid for technical reasons having to do with its production. You have determined that the solubility product Ksp of Herbigon is 9.00×10−6.
Although the formula of this new chemical is a trade secret, it can be revealed that the formula for Herbigon is X-acetate (XCH3COO, where "X" represents the top-secret cation of the salt). It is this cation that kills weeds. Since it is critical to have Herbigon dissolved (it won't kill weeds as a suspension), you are working on adjusting the pH so Herbigon will be soluble at the concentration needed to kill weeds. What pH must the solution have to yield a solution in which the concentration of X+ is 1.50×10−3 M ? The pKa of acetic acid is 4.76.

Which type of substance ionizes completely and creates hydronium ions when dissolved in water?
maw [93]

Answer:

Strong acid

Explanation:

An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions in an aqueous solution.

Hydroxonium ions are formed as a result of the chemical bonding between the oxygen of water molecules and the protons released by the acid due to its ionisation. This makes aqueous solution of acids conduct electricity.

A strong acid is one that ionizes almost completely. Examples are:

1. Hydrochloric acid

2. Tetraoxosulphate (VI) acid

3. Trioxonitrate (V) acid

4. Hydroiodic acid

5. Hydrobromic acid
