If the pH of a 150M solution of a weak acid is 35 Calculate
If the pH of a .150M solution of a weak acid is 3.5. Calculate % ionization.
Solution
[H3O+] = 10-pH = 10-3.5 = 3.16 X 10-4 M
[H3O+] of weak acid = 3.16 X 10-4 M
% ionisation = [H3O+] X 100/ [weak acid] = 3.16 X 10-4 X 100 / (0.150 ) = 0.21%
% ionisation of 0.150 M weak acid = 0.21%
