Exercise 22

    

 

Here is a $0.400\;M$ solution of $HN_3$ (hydrazoic acid, $K_a = 1.9\cdot 10^{-5}$) Equilibrium of hydrolysis: $HN_3$ $+$ $H_2O$ $H_3O^+$ $+$ $N_3^-$ Identify please the initial concentrations (without $H_2O$):

a) $0\;M$, $0.400\;M$, $0\;M$ b) $0.400\;M$, $0.400\;M$, $0.400\;M$ c) $0\;M$, $0\;M$, $0.400\;M$ d) $0.400\;M$, $0\;M$, $0\;M$

Initial concentrations: d) $0.400\;M$, $0\;M$, $0\;M$
