In this question, we're going to be looking into the chloro, the ionization of the chloroacetic acid.
00:07
So that chloral acetic acid, we are going to call it ha for simplicity.
00:11
This is going to ionize in water to produce the h3o positive ion and the n -ion a, which we are just going to call a.
00:21
And this is actually cl, c -h -2 -c -o -o -negative.
00:26
We're just going to call this a for simplicity.
00:28
So we've been asked to look into the value of ka, which is equal to the concentration of h3o positive, multiplied by the concentration of the n -ion, divided by the concentration of the global acidic acid.
00:44
Recall that these concentrations are at equilibrium.
00:47
So what we need to do is to look at the initial concentrations.
00:50
We look at the change in the concentration due to the ionization process, and then finally it does due to determine the concentration.
00:58
Equilibrium so looking at the information that we've been given we've been told that the ph is equal to 1 .95 so what this means is the concentration of h3 or positive it is equal to 0 .01 this is because the concentration rather ph is equal to negative lock the concentration of h3 or positive therefore the concentration it is equal to 10 to the power negative the ph which gives as 0 .01 for a ph that is equal to 1 .95...
