Question
Calculate the pH of a solution that is prepared by dissolving 0.520 mol of hydrocyanie acid (HCN, K,- 6.17%10 10) and 0.230 mol of formic acid
(ICOOH, K,- 1.77K10) in water and diluting to 2.40 L. Also, calculate the equilibrium concentrations of HCN, CN. HCOOH, and HCOO. Do
not make an approximation unless the initial acid concentration is greater than 1000 x K, (Hint: The pH will be determined by the stronger acid of
this pair.)
