- Weak Acids dissociate according to the following equation: HA(aq) + H2O(L) ⇌ H3O+ (aq) + A-(aq) In a lab experiment, a student needs to make a buffer solution with a pH of 6.870. If the pKa of the weak acid is 6.500, what ratio of conjugate weak base to acid is needed to make the buffer, I.e. what is the value of [A-/HA]? (Please provide your answer to 3 decimal places.)arrow_forwardIn which direction would the reaction have to run in order to rebalance the ratios of CO2 and H2 O to H+ and HCO3 − when CO2 levels are lower than normal?CO2CO2+ H2O ⇌ H2CO3 ⇌ H++ HCO3−arrow_forwardWrite the K expression for an aqueous solution of hypochlorous acid:arrow_forward

- Potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) concentrations can be determined through titrating samples of KHP (a monoprotic acid) with bases such as NaOH in the presence of an indicator such as phenolphthalein. The indicator is colorless in an acidic solution and turns pink in an alkaline solution. Thus, we can establish an equilibrium for the phenolphthalein with the following reaction. HIn + H2O ⇌ In− + H3O+ If the HIn species is "acid color" or colorless for the phenolphthalein, and the In− species is "base color" or pink for this particular indicator, what color will appear in a flask in which a 0.2993 gram sample of KHP is completely neutralized with an excess of NaOH? The flask will be colorless. The flask will be pink. The flask will be white from KCl precipitation.
