- Use the References to access important values if needed for this question. In an aqueous solution of a weak acid, HA, the assumption is often made that [HA]equilibrium = [HA]nitial: This approximation is reasonable if the initial concentration of the acid is sufficiently large compared to Ka. What multiple of K, must the initial concentration of a weak acid exceed, for the initial concentration and the equilibrium concentration to be within 9.98 percent of each other?arrow_forwardThe hydronium ion concentration of an aqueous solution of 0.558 M isoquinoline (a weak base with the formula CoH-N) is ... M. = LO°H]arrow_forwardMethanoic acid is also called formic acid. It has the chemical formula HCOOH(l). It is a colourless fuming liquid that is mainly used as a preservative. It exhibits the following equilibrium in water:HCOOH(aq) + H2O(l) → HCOO–(aq) + H3O+(aq) 4) The concentration of the hydroxide ion, OH-(aq), in an aqueous solution is 2.5 x 10–3 mol/L.

- The simplest amino acid is glycine, H2NCH2CO2H. The common feature of amino acids is that they contain the functional groups: an amine group, –NH2, and a carboxylic acid group, –CO2H. An amino acid can function aseither an acid or a base. For glycine, the acid strength of the carboxyl group is about the same as that of acetic acid, CH3CO2H, and the base strength of the amino group is slightly greater than that of ammonia, NH3.(a) Write the Lewis structures of the ions that form when glycine is dissolved in 1 M HCl and in 1 M KOH.(b) Write the Lewis structure of glycine when this amino acid is dissolved in water.arrow_forward8. Our bodies are able to preserve a near constant pH due to the presence of hydrogen carbonate anion (HCO,). K values for the diprotic acid carbonic acid (H,CO;) are Kaj = 4.5 x 10?, K2 = 4.7 x 10-". a) Hydrogen carbonate anion is an amphoteric species. Define amphoteric. b) In the space below, write out chemical equations to describe the behavior of this species as both a Bronsted acid and a Bronsted base, and use the equilibrium constants given above to decipher whether a solution of HCO;¯ will be acidic, basic, or neutral.
