pH of acetic acid solutions. Remember, acetic acid is a weak acid, with a Ka = 1.8 x 10−5.
Obtain 10.0 mL of 0.10 M acetic acid and place in a clean dry 50.0 mL beaker. Predict the value of the pH. Measure the pH with the pH meter. Record the value.
Take 1.00 mL of the 0.10 M CH3COOH(aq) in the previous step, and put it in another clean beaker. Add 9.00 mL of deionized water and stir. What is the new concentration of CH3COOH(aq)? Predict the pH. Measure the pH. Record the value.
Add 90.0 mL of deionized water to the diluted CH3COOH(aq) in step 2. What is the new concentration of CH3COOH(aq)? Predict the pH. Measure the pH. Record the value.

Nitrogen and oxygen do not react appreciably at room temperature, as illustrated by our atmosphere. But at high temperatures, the reaction below can proceed to a measurable extent. N2(g) + O2(g) ⇔ 2 NO(g) At 3000 K, the reaction above has Keq = 0.0153. If 0.1852 mol of pure NO is injected into an evacuated 2.0-L container and heated to 3000K, what will be the equilibrium concentration of NO?
