(choose chapter or problem)

Imagine you prepare a 0.10 M solution of nitric acid, HNO3, and a 0.10 M solution of hydrofl uoric acid, HF. Th e concentrations of the ions in equilibrium are given in the table. General equation for acid dissociation: HA(aq) H1(aq) 1 A2(aq) Acid [HA] [H1] [A2] nitric acid, HNO3(aq) ,0 0.10 M 0.10 M hydrofl uoric acid, HF(aq) 0.0974 M 2.6 3 1023 M 2.6 3 1023 M a. Determine K for hydrofl uoric acid, HF. b. Explain why K for nitric acid, HNO3, is a very large number. c. Which acid is stronger? Explain your thinking. d. Which solution has the higher concentration of H1(aq), 0.10 M HNO3 or 0.10 M HF? Explain your thinking.
