Answer the following in brief :

Acetic acid is 5% ionised in its decimolar solution. Calculate the dissociation constant of acid.

योग

उत्तर

Given: Percent dissociation = 5%, Concentration (c) = 1 decimolar

To find: Dissociation constant of acid (Ka)

Formulae: 

i. Percent dissociation = α × 100

ii. K= αc

Calculation:

Using formula (i),

α = `"Percent dissociation"/100 = 5/100 = 0.05`

c = 1 decimolar = 0.1 M

Using formula (ii),

Ka = (0.05)2 × (0.1)

= 2.5 × 10-4

The dissociation constant of acid is 2.5 × 10-4.
