Calculate the equilibrium constant, Kc, for reaction 2NOCI (g) -2NO(g A) 3.0 x 10 B) 1.8 x 103 1.4 x 10 D) 5.6 x 10 E) 4.1 x 10

Explanation / Answer

9. B

Strong acids are almost completely ionised i.e 100% ionisation.

10. C

Concentration of hydronium ion=concentration of HClO3

11. C

We know that pH is defined as negative logarithm of hydronium ion concentration which in this case is equal to concentration of HNO3.

pH=-log3.45*10-3=2.46

12. C

Strongest acid have lowest pH
