Ch.16 - Aqueous Equilibria: Acids & Bases
Chapter 16, Problem 147
When NO2 is bubbled into water, it is completely converted to HNO3 and HNO2: 2 NO21g2 + H2O1l2S HNO31aq2 + HNO21aq2 Calculate the pH and the concentrations of all species present (H3O+ , OH-, HNO2, NO2 -, and NO3 -) in a solution prepared by dissolving 0.0500 mol of NO2 in 1.00 L of water. Ka for HNO2 is 4.5 * 10-4.

Textbook Question
Acid and base behavior can be observed in solvents other
than water. One commonly used solvent is dimethyl
sulfoxide (DMSO), which can be treated as a monoprotic
acid 'HSol.' Just as water can behave either as an acid or a
base, so HSol can behave either as a Brønsted–Lowry acid
or base.
(b) The weak acid HCN has an acid dissociation constant
Ka = 1.3 * 10-13 in the solvent HSol. If 0.010 mol of
NaCN is dissolved in 1.00 L of HSol, what is the equilibrium
concentration of H2Sol + ?

A 7.0 mass % solution of H3PO4 in water has a density of
1.0353 g/mL. Calculate the pH and the molar concentrations
of all species present (H3PO4, H2PO4-, PO43-, H3O+ ,
and OH-) in the solution. Values of equilibrium constants
are listed in Appendix C.

Textbook Question
In the case of very weak acids, 3H3O+ 4 from the dissociation
of water is significant compared with 3H3O+ 4
from the dissociation of the weak acid. The sugar substitute
saccharin 1C7H5NO3S2, for example, is a very weak
acid having Ka = 2.1 * 10-12 and a solubility in water of
348 mg/100 mL. Calculate 3H3O+ 4 in a saturated solution
of saccharin. (Hint: Equilibrium equations for the dissociation
of saccharin and water must be solved simultaneously.)
