Equilibrium - Result Question 27

####28. The dissociation constants for acetic acid and HCN at 25C are 1.5×105 and 4.5×1010 respectively. The equilibrium constant for the equilibrium

[2009]

CN+CH3COOHHCN+CH3COO would be:

(a) 3.0×105

(b) 3.0×104

(c) 3.0×104

(d) 3.0×105

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (c) Given, CH3COOHCH3COO+H+;

Ka1=1.5×105 HCNH++CN;Ka2=4.5×1010

or H++CNHCN;
