Solving a PH Problem
Not what you're looking for?
What is the pH value of water containing 0.005 M of an acid with a acid dissociation constant of 0.001 M. The dissociation of the acid in water can be represented as: HA <-> H+ + A-
Ka=[H][A]/[HA]
Kw=[OH][H]=10^-14
Mass balance equation: Cta=[HA]+[A](MBE)
Charge balance equation: CB = [H]=[A-]+[OH-]
