2. The dissociation of acetic acid, CH3COOH, has an equilibrium constant at
25C of 1.8 x 10-5. The reaction is
CH3COOH (aq)  CH3COO- (aq) + H+ (aq)
If the equilibrium concentration of CH3COOH is 0.46 moles in 0.500 L of
water and that of CH3COO- is 8.1 x 10-3 moles in the same 0.500 L,
calculate [H+] for the reaction.
K =
[CH3COO-] [H+]
[CH3COOH]
Plug in known values and solve.
1.8 x 10-5 = [8.1 x 10-3 moles/0.500 L] [H+]
[0.46 moles/0.500 L]
[H+] = 1.0 x 10-3 M
