Question
The following five beakers represent
solutions of 5 different acids, at the
same initial concentrations, at
equilibrium. The gray circles represent
relative concentrations of H3O+ in
solution. Water molecules and anions
(from the acid) have been omitted for
clarity. Which beaker represents acid HY?
The Acids represented are:
HX, Ka= 1.0 x 10^-2
HY, Ka= 5.0 x 10^-8
HZ, Ka= 2.0 x 10^-6
HL, ka= 4.0 x 10^-9
HD, ka= 3.0 x 10^-4
(refer to the attached image)
(all the circles in the image are gray)
