HCOOH is a weak acid. This in a solution will partially dissociate into its respective ions.
pH = -log(H+)
pH = -log(0.2)
Put above number in your calculator to get your answer.
Yes, NaC2H3O2 and HC2H3O2 is a buffer system when dissolved in water. Sodium acetate (NaC2H3O2) acts as a base, while acetic acid (HC2H3O2) acts as an acid. This buffer system can help maintain the pH of the solution when small amounts of acid or base are added.
There is only one equivalent of OH^-1 in one molecule of HC2H3O2.
Use equimolar quantities: LiOH + HC2H3O2 (acetic acid) --> C2H3O2- (acetate) + Li+ + H2O
The active ingredient in vinegar is acetic acid (HC2H3O2), which is a weak acid.
HC2H3O2, also known as acetic acid, is considered a weak electrolyte. This is because it partially dissociates into ions (H⁺ and C2H3O2⁻) when dissolved in water, but not completely like strong electrolytes do. Therefore, while it can conduct electricity to some extent, it does so less effectively than strong electrolytes.
The pH of a solution containing 0.1 M of HC2H3O2 is around 2.88.
The conjugate base of HC2H3O2 is C2H3O2-. This ion is formed when HC2H3O2 donates a proton.

To find the number of moles in 500.0g of HC2H3O2, divide the given mass (500.0g) by the molar mass of HC2H3O2 (60.05 g/mol). This calculation would give you approximately 8.33 moles of HC2H3O2 in 500.0g.

Acetic acid
Use equimolar quantities: LiOH + HC2H3O2 (acetic acid) --> C2H3O2- (acetate) + Li+ + H2O
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a strong acid, while acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is a weaker acid. In solution, HCl will dissociate completely into H+ and Cl- ions, while HC2H3O2 will only partially dissociate. This results in a higher concentration of H+ ions in HCl solution compared to HC2H3O2 solution at the same concentration.
Acetic Acid
This question is quite ambiguous. If you are trying to find pH, then you cannot since Acetic Acid is a weak acid. Weak acids do not dissociate completely and, therefore, have a varying pH level depending on how well it dissociates.
What is the pH of 0.2 M acetic acid Ka equals 1.8 x 10-5? This is an equilibrium problem.When HC2H3O dissolved in water, it forms H3O+1 ions and C2H3O2-1 ions. As the H3O+1 ions and C2H3O2-1 ions bounce around in the water, they reform water and HC2H3O2 molecules.#1 HC2H3O2 + H2O = H3O+1 + C2H3O2-1Ka is the dissociation constant. The dissociation constant is a measure of the number of number of H3O+1 and C2H3O2-1 ions per liter of solution compared to the original number of HC2H3O2 molecules per liter of solution. The brackets [ ] mean moles/liter, which is a measure of the concentration of the substance inside the brackets..#2 Ka = [H3O+1] * [C2H3O2-1] ÷ [HC2H3O2], is the dissociation constant equation.When one molecule of HC2H3O2 dissociates, in water, it forms one H3O+1 ion and one C2H3O2-1 ion.A 0.2 molar solution of HC2H3O2 means 0.2 moles of HC2H3O2 was dissolved in enough water to make one liter of solution#1 HC2H3O2 + H2O = H3O+1 + C2H3O2-1#2 Ka = ( [H3O+1] * [C2H3O2-1] ) ÷ [HC2H3O2]We do not include the concentration of water, because the number of water molecules that do not dissociate greatly exceeds the number that do dissociate. We know this because the Ka is very small.Since we do not know how many HC2H3O2 dissociated, let x equal the moles/per liter of HC2H3O that dissociated forming x moles/per liter of H3O+1 ions and x moles/per liter of C2H3O2-1 ions. Now, substitute x for the [H3O+1] and. [C2H3O2-1].#3 Ka = x * x ÷ [HC2H3O2]#4 Ka = x^2 ÷ [HC2H3O2]#5 x^2 = Ka ÷ [HC2H3O2]#6 x = ( Ka ÷ [HC2H3O2] ) ^0.5Now, substitute Ka = 1.8 x 10-5 for the dissociation, and 0.2 for [HC2H3O2].Solve for the value of x.(You can substitute these values of Ka and [HC2H3O2] into equation #3 and solve for x. I just wanted to show you how to derive the equation.)This answer will be very small, around n x 10^-3.x = [H3O+1] = about 10^-3.pH = - log of the [H3O+1]pH = - log xDon't forget the negative sign.This answer will be between +2 and +3In case you do not know how to do pH problems, I will do an example.What is the pH of 0.1 molar solution of HOBr? (Ka = 2.0 x 10^-9Eq.#1 HOBr + H2O = H3O+1 + Br-1Eq.#2 Ka = ( [H3O+1] * [Br-1] ) ÷ [HBr]Eq.#3 Ka = x * x ÷ [HBr]Eq.#4 Ka = x^2 ÷ [HBr]Eq.#5 x^2 = Ka ÷ [HBr]Now, substitute Ka = 2.0 x 10^-9 for the dissociation, and 0.1 for [HBr].(10^-1)Solve for the value of x.Eq.#5 x^2 = (2.0 x 10^-9) ÷ (10^-1)Dividing powers, means subtracting exponents!! (-9) - (-1) = -8Eq.#5 x^2 = (2.0 x 10^-8)Remember, when you take (n * 10^-8)^0.5 = n^0.5 * (10 ^-8)^0.5Remember, when you take the square root of 10^-8, you get 10^-4, because 10^-4 * 10^-4 = 10^-8Eq.#6 x = (2.0 x 10^-8) ^0.5=x = [H3O+1] = 1.414 * 10^-4pH = - log of the [H3O+1]log 10^x = exponent of 10 = xLog of ( n * 10^-b) = (log n) + (-b)pH = - log (1.414 * 10^-4 )pH = (- log 1.414 + -log * 10^-4 ) = (-0.15) + (+4) = +3.85Don't forget 2 negatives = a positive +4This answer will be between +3 and +4
