Question

Transcribed Image Text:Monochloroacetic acid,
HC₂H₂ C102, is a skin irritant that is used in "chemical peels" intended to
remove the top layer of dead skin from the face and ultimately improve the
complexion. The value of
K for monochloroacetic acid is
1.35 x 10-³. Calculate the pH of a 0.12-M solution of monochloroacetic acid.
