- Trichloroacetic acid (CCl3COOH) is a corrosive acid that is used to precipitate proteins. The pH of a 0.050 M solution of trichloroacetic acid is the same as the pH of a 0.040 M HClO4 solution. Calculate Ka and pKa for trichloroacetic acid.arrow_forwardWhen the reaction below reaches equilibrium, does the equilibrium lie on the left or the right side? Briefly explain.ClO– + CH3CO2H ⇌ HClO + CH3CO2–arrow_forwardWill acetylene react with sodium hydride according to the following equation to form a salt and hydrogen, H2? Using pKa values given in Table 4.1, calculate Keq for this equilibrium.arrow_forward
