Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the percent ionization of a weak acid with a concentration of 0.10 M and Ka = 1.0 × 10⁻⁵.

💡 Hint: Use the formula for percent ionization we've discussed.

Question 2

Determine the pH of a solution of a weak base with [OH⁻] concentration of 0.005 M.

💡 Hint: This requires using the logarithmic pOH to find pH.
