Hydrogen, H2S, and sodium acetate, NaCH3CO2 are mixed in water. Using Table 16.2, write a balanced equation for the acid-base reaction that could in principle, occur. Does the equilibrium lie toward the products or the reactants?
Most naturally occurring acids are weak acids. Lactic acid is one example. CH3CH(OH)CO2H(s)+H2O(l)H3O+(aq)+CH3CH(OH)CO2(aq) If you place some lactic acid in water, it will ionize to a small extent, and an equilibrium will be established. Suggest some experiments to prow that this is a weak acid and that the establishment of equilibrium is a reversible process.

The pH scale was designed to make it convenient to express hydrogen ion concentrations that are small in aqueous solutions. The definiton of pH is in terms of base 10 logarithms. pH = -log[H¹] where [H] is the hydrogen ion concentration. a. If the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution is 5.98 x 10-3 mol/L, the pH is b. If the pH of a solution is 3.171, the hydrogen ion concentration is mol/L.
