Based on our knowledge of strong and weak acids, we can confirm that the Ka value for acetic acid will be relatively low since it is a weak acid.

Acids can be strong or weak. This is determined by its <u><em>tendency to break apart into ions or stay together to form molecules.</em></u> Although somewhat counter-intuitive, strong acids are those that are most likely to break apart and therefore contain a <em><u>high number of </u></em><em><u>ions </u></em><em><u>within their solutions</u></em>.

Weak acids, on the other hand, are those that<em><u> tend to stay together in the form of </u></em><em><u>molecules </u></em><em><u>and therefore possess very </u></em><em><u>low ion counts </u></em><em><u>in their solutions.</u></em> The acid dissociation constant, Kₐ, is used to measure whether an acid is weak or strong and how much so. In the case of Acetic acid, the ka measurement will offer a low value, indicating a weak acid.

An aqueous solution contains 0.100 m naoh at 25.0 °c. the ph of the solution is ________.
ikadub [295]
Recall; pH + pOH = 14
In this case [OH-] =0.100 m
therefore;
pOH = -LOG[OH-]
         = - Log (0.100)
         = 1.00
 Therefore; the pOH is 1.00
And since, pH +pOH = 14
Then pH = 14-pOH
                = 14 -1
                 = 13
Thus the pH is 13.00

A 0.100 M solution of K2SO4 would contain the same total ion concentration as which of the following solutions? 0.0800 M Na2CO3
mr Goodwill [35]
<span>0.0750 M Na3PO4 as this solution would contain 3 Na+ and 1 PO4- ions per mole of Na3PO4 for an effective total ion concentration of 4 x .0750 or .300 M. The K2SO4 has three total ions or a concentration of .300 M as well. Hope it helps. </span>
