Calculating the ph of a weak acid calculate the ph of a 1 m solution of hydrofluoric acid (hf, k, 7.2 x 101)

The pH of weak acid is 1.001

Explanation:

We are given:

Concentration of HF = 0.1 M

The chemical equation for the dissociation of HF follows:

Initial:               0.1

At eqllm:        0.1-x     x     x

The equation for equilibrium constant follows:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Neglecting the negative value of 'x' because concentration cannot be negative

So, concentration of = 0.0998 M

To calculate the pH of the solution, we use the equation:

Hence, the pH of weak acid is 1.001

it should have an internal chamber and two thermometers sticking out of the top. the internal chamber will also be closed off from the outside.
