Calculate the pH of a 9.06×10-3 M solution of H2SO4.
(Ka = 0.0120 for HSO4-)

Solutions

Expert Solution

             H2SO4(aq) --------------> H^+ (aq) + HSO4^- (aq)

             9.06*10^-3M                                       9.06*10^-3M

                 HSO4^- (aq) -----------------> H^+ (aq) + SO4^2- (aq)

I                 9.06*10^-3                            0                0

C                   -x                                        +x              +x

E               9.06*10^-3 -x                          +x               +x

             Ka   = [H^+][SO4^2-]/[HSO4^-]

          0.012     = x*x/9.06*10^-3 -x

         0.012*(0.00906-x) = x^2

              x   = 0.006

         [H^+]    = x   = 0.006M

        PH   = -log[H^+]

                  = -log0.06

                   = 1.2218
