Solve the following problems using the systematic approach to
equilibrium problems.
Determine the concentration of Ag+, CN-, and HCN in a saturated solution
of AgCN where the pH is fixed at 5.90.
Determine the concentration of NH4+, NH3, CH3COOH (acetic acid), and
CH3COO- (acetate ion) if 0.0050 moles of ammonium acetate (NH4+ -OOCCH3)
is dissolved in 1.00 L of water and the pH is fixed at 5.90.
Please show all work!
3. Calculate the pH of 5.0 x 10-8 M HCl. You will need to use the
systematic treatment of equilibrium, and there are no simplifying
assumptions you can make. Approximately what fraction of the total H+
in this solution is due to the autoprotolysis of water?
4. Write chemical reactions for the following:
a. Ka for 3-nitrobenzoic acid
b. Kb for 3-nitrobenzoate
c. Kb for benzylamine
d. Ka for benzylammonium ion
5. Calculate the pH and fraction of dissociation for a 0.10 M solution
of formic acid.
6. Calculate the pH and fraction of association for a 0.10 M solution
of sodium formate.
7. Calculate the pH and fraction of dissociation for a 0.050 M solution
of ethanolamine (2-amino ethanol).
