The concentration of hydroxide ion in an aqueous solution at 25°c is 3. 6 × 10⁻⁴ m. What is the concentration of the hydronium ion?.

Respuesta :

Concentration of hydronium ion is 2.8 x 10⁻¹¹ M.

Calculation:

Given,

[OH⁻] = 3.6 x 10⁻⁴ M                    (concentration of hydroxide ion)

To find,

[H₃O⁺] =?                                     (concentration of hydronium ion)

We know the relation that,

[H₃O⁺] x [OH⁻] = Kw

where,

Kw is the ionic constant of water at 25°C

Kw = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴

Substituting the known concentration of [OH-], we can find the concentration of [H3O+],

[H₃O⁺][3.6 x 10⁻⁴] = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴

[H₃O⁺] = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴/ 3.6 x 10⁻⁴

[H₃O⁺] = 2.8 x 10⁻¹¹ M

Therefore, the concentration of hydronium ion is 2.8 x 10⁻¹¹ M.
