For a salt, NaHA, whose solubility product constant is 6.32 x 10-5, determine the concentration of HA- in the saturated solution. Show the solubility product constant expression. Note the number of significant figures.
NaHA -----> Na+ + HA-
S S
Ksp = [Na+][HA-]
solubility product constant Ksp = 6.32*10-5
Ksp = [Na+][HA-]
6.32*10-5 = S*S
6.32*10-5 = S2
S = 0.7949*10-2
S = 7.949*10-3 M
[HA-] = 7.949*10-3 M four significant figures
