The acid ionization constant for
Fe(H2O)62+(aq) is
3.0×10-6. Calculate the pH of a
0.0248 M solution of
Fe(NO3)2.
pH =
Fe(NO3)2 salt of weakbase,strong acid.
kb of weak base = kw/ka = 10^-14/(3*10^-6) = 3.33*10^-9
pkb = -log(3.33*10^-9) = 8.47
pH of solution of Fe(NO3)2 = 7-1/2(pkb+logC)
= 7-1/2(8.47+log0.0248)
= 3.57
