If 1000 molecules of HC2H3O2 are placed into solution. How many hydronium ions will form? 1 5 10 100
2 Answers
Should you not quote the acid dissociation constant....?
Explanation:
I would suspect ONE hydronium ion to result if that....in the given scenario....
There will be 10 hydronium ions.
Explanation:
The degree of ionization depends on the concentration.
You don't state the concentration of the acetic acid, so I will assume that it is 0.200 mol/L.
We can use an ICE table to solve the problem.
Check for negligibility:
This result means that 9 molecules out of every thousand are in the ionized form.
