There are no numbers provided so I will try to explain the equation. If you want to find the percent error you would do theoretical (the number it’s supposed to be) minus experimental (the number you got in the experiment) over the theoretical value (same as the first one.) You must multiply this by 100 in order to show the actual percentage rather than very low decimals. You want the percent error to be as low as possible because the lower it is the less mistakes happened. Mistakes can include too much/less of solvent, solution, or the glassware wasn’t clean enough, and much much more.
I hope this helps!
Please mark the brainliest if it does! (:
Answer:
Carboxylic acid
A carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group attached to an R-group. The general formula of a carboxylic acid is R−COOH or R−CO₂H, with R referring to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other group. Carboxylic acids occur widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids.

The question is incomplete, complete question is :
Determine the pH of an HF solution of each of the following concentrations. In which cases can you not make the simplifying assumption that x is small? (
for HF is
.)
[HF] = 0.280 M
Express your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.
Explanation:3
Initial concentration if HF = c = 0.280 M
Dissociation constant of the HF = 

Initially
c 0 0
At equilibrium :
(c-x) x x
The expression of disassociation constant is given as:
![K_a=\frac{[H^+][F^-]}{[HF]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_a%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BF%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BHF%5D%7D)


Solving for x, we get:
x = 0.01346 M
So, the concentration of hydrogen ion at equilibrium is :
![[H^+]=x=0.01346 M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3Dx%3D0.01346%20M)
The pH of the solution is ;
![pH=-\log[H^+]=-\log[0.01346 M]=1.87](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3D-%5Clog%5B0.01346%20M%5D%3D1.87)
The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.
Quantitative observations include numerical data. Ex: 32 degrees, 10 inches, etc.
