100 ml of 0.1 M HCl and 100 ml of 0.1 M HOCN are mixed then(K_a= 1.2 xx 10^(-6))

Answer»

`OCN^(-) `concentration in the solution is `1.2 xx10^(-6) `
pH of the solution is 1.3
solution is a buffer
`H^(+) ` in the solution is `10^(6) `

Solution :`HOCNhArr H^(+) +OCN^(-) `
` K_a RARR ([H^(+)][OCN^(-)])/( [HOCN]) `
` 1.2 xx 10 ^(-6)= (5xx 10 ^(_2)[OCN^(-) ])/( 5 xx10 ^(-2)) `
`[ OCN^(-)]= 1.2 xx 10 ^(-6) `
Approximation method, WEAK acid conribution is neglected.
` [H^(+) ] =(100 xx 0.1 +0)/( 200) = 0.05 therefore pH =1.3 `
