1. Write an equation for each acid or base showing its ionization in water, and write the equilibrium constant expression for the weak acid or base.
Nitrous Acid, HNO2
Ka = 4.0 x 10-4
Acetic Acid, HC2H3O2
Ka = 1.8 x 10-5
Hypochlorous Acid, HOCl
Ka = 3.5 x10-8
Pyridine, C5H5N
Kb = 1.7 x 10-9
Diethylamine, (C2H5)2NH
Kb =4.38 x 10-4
1) Nitrous Acid, HNO2
HNO2 + H2O <------------> NO2- + H3O+
Ka = [NO2-] [H3O+]/ [HNO2]
2) Acetic Acid, HC2H3O2
HC2H3O2 + H2O <------------> C2H3O2- + H3O+
Ka = [ C2H3O2-] [H3O+]/ [ HC2H3O2]
3) Hypochlorous Acid, HOCl
HOCl+ H2O <------------> OCl- + H3O+
Ka = [ OCl- ] [H3O+]/ [ HOCl]
4) Pyridine, C5H5N
C5H5N + H2O <------------> C5H5NH+ + OH-
Kb = [ C5H5NH+ ] [OH-]/ [C5H5N]
5) Diethylamine, (C2H5)2NH
(C2H5)2NH + H2O <------------> (C2H5)2NH2+ + OH-
Kb = [(C2H5)2NH2+] [OH-]/ [ (C2H5)2NH]
