PART A)
A solution is prepared by mixing equal volumes of 0.17 M HCl and 0.42 M HNO3. (Assume that volumes are additive.) Express the pH to two decimal places.
PART B)
Using the chart Estimate [H3O+] in a 1.5 M solution of each acid.
Express the molar concentrations to two significant figures separated by commas.
I'm stuck on the one that says very large. For all the other ones I multiplied the Ka by the 1.5M. The answer for the large one is NOT "verylarge" 1.5 or 0. Please help!
Acid | Formula | Ka |
Formic | HCO2H | 1.8×10−4 |
Hydrocyanic | HCN | 4.9×10−10 |
Perchloric | HClO4 | very large |
Hypobromous | HOBr |
2.0×10−9 |
