Given the Ka values (in parentheses) for the following acids:

HSO4(Ka= 1.2 x 10–2); HNO2 (Ka= 4.0 x 10–4); HC2H3O2 (Ka= 1.8 x 10–5);

Calculate Kc values for the following acid-base equilibria:

(a) HSO4(aq) + C2H3O2(aq) ⇌ HC2H3O2(aq) + SO42–(aq)

(b) HC2H3O2(aq) + NO2–(aq) ⇌ HNO2(aq)+ C2H3O2(aq)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data,

Ka for HSO4- = 1.2 x 10-2

Ka for HNO2 = 4.0 x 10-4

Ka for HC2H3O= 1.8 x 10-5
