Calculate the pH and concentration of species present in a polyprotic acid solution. For a 3.65x10-2 M solution of H₂C6H606, calculate both the pH and the C6H6062- ion concentration. H₂C6H606+ H₂O HC₂H₂O6 + H₂0 H3O+ + HC6H606 Ka1 = 7.9x10-5 H30++ C6H6062- Ka2 = 1.6x10-12 pH = [C6H606²-] = M
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
![Calculate the pH and concentration of species present in a polyprotic acid solution.
For a 3.65x10-2 M solution of H₂C6H606, calculate both the pH and the C6H606²- ion concentration.
H₂C6H606+ H₂OH30+ + HC6H606 Ka1 = 7.9x10-5
HC6H606+ H₂O H3O+ + C₂H606²- Ka2 = 1.6x10-12
