How will the concentration of hydronium ions and the pH be affected by the addiction KF to the following Equilibrium
HF+ H20 <-----> CH3NH2 +H3O ^+
HF+ H2O <------------------> F- +H3O ^+
to this equailibrium on addition of KF
KF ----------------------> K+ + F-
due to common ion F- on the product side the degree of ionisation of weak acid HF decreases.
so H3O + concentration also decreases
if H3O + concentration decreases pH will increases from the formula pH = -log [H3O+]
note : you gave wrong equation in the problem . HF+ H20 <-----> CH3NH2 +H3O ^+ . check once . for the question i wrote correct eqaution
