the pka of HOCL is 7.5. Calculate the pH of a 0.53 m solution of
HOCL
The reaction of HOCl as acid :
Acid constant Ka for reaction
Initial concentration of HOCl = 0.53 M
At equilibrium if x moles of acid are dissociating then
At equilibrium concentrations of
acid contant
Acid ionization constant vlue is very small that means a small concentration of HOCl is ionized, leaving the concentration of unionized HOCl concentration (0.53-x) can be considered unchanged. Therefore the equation can be rewrite as:
Therefore the
