Please help, Acid dissociation constant
« on: May 30, 2011, 10:52:15 AM »
 >:(

the question I am stuck on is

1. calculate the concentration of hydronium at equilibrium. What I dont get is number one I have two different HC2H3O2 solution concentrations, I detirmined the volume to make each, and wrote the equilibrium constant expression.

my volume for 1 was 20 molar mL, my volume for the other was 25 molar mL
my pH for one was 2.53 and the other 2.48

I have to find the equilbrium for H+ c2H3O2 and HC2H3O2.

I know I have to set up an ice chart but I just have no clue as how to go about doing this! I'm sorry this is so long and I'm really not trying to get anybody to do my homework. I just honestly dont get this stuff and ive tried everything!

Thanks!

1. Punctuation has a purpose.
2. Spell-check takes one click.

3. Show exactly what you have done. This makes it easier for people to help, and is forum policy.

4. "molar mL" is not a measure of volume, what do you mean? Explain clearly what you did in the experiment - or if the experiment is described in the question you should write it out exactly as it appears in your book. At the moment it is difficult to work out what the question is.
