Practice: The pH of an aqueous 0.10 M nitrite ion is 8.17. What is the base dissociation constant of the base?
WEAK ACIDS and WEAK BASES are weak electrolytes that do not completely ionize in solution, but instead form an equilibrium.
Example #1: What is the original molarity of a solution of weak acid with a Ka of 4.7 x 10-3 and pH of 4.12 at 25 oC?
