Ch.15 - Chemical Equilibrium

Chapter 15, Problem 154b

Acetic acid tends to form dimers, (CH3CO2H2), because of hydrogen bonding: <IMAGE> The equilibrium constant Kc for this reaction is 1.51⨉102 in benzene solution but only 3.7⨉10-2 in water solution. (b) Calculate the ratio of dimers to monomers for 0.100 M acetic acid in water.
