Calculate the hydronium ion concentration in 50.0 mL of 0.10M NaH
2AsO
4.
a) 2.4 E-2
b) 1.6 E-3
c) 1.0 E-4
d) 2.5 E-5
It also gives Ka
1, Ka
2, and Ka
3.
So basically the reactions I have are (A means AsO
43-):
H3A
H
2A
- + H
+ Ka1= 6.0 E-3
H
2A
- + H
2O
H
3A + OH
- Kb1 = 1.66 E-12
H
2A
- H
+ + HA
2- Ka2 = 1.1 E-7
HA
2- + H
2O
H
2A
- + OH
- Kb2 = 9.09 E-8
HA
2- A
3- + H
+ Ka3 = 3.0 E-12
A
3- + H
2O
HA
2- + OH
- Kb3 = 3.33 E-3
NaH
2AsO
4 (H
2A
-) comes up in more than 1 equation, so which one do I use to figure out the pH or [H
+] ?
