The compound HA is an acid that is soluble in water. Which of the "beakers" below shows HA behaving as a weak acid in water?
Piperazine, C4H10N2, is a diprotic weak base (pKb1 = 4.22 and pKb2 = 8.67). A sample of piperazine is dissolved in 100.0 mL of water and titrated with 0.500 M HCl. It takes 48.00 mL of HCl to reach the second equivalence point.
Calculate the pH after the following amounts of HCl have been added: 0 mL, 12.00mL, 24.00mL,36.00mL, 48.00mL, and 60.00mL
CH3CH2CO2H , Ką = 1.3 x 105
CH3CH2CO2 , Kp = 7.7 x 10-10
F, Kp = 1.4 x 10-11
