Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionIn the case of very weak acids, 3H3O+ 4 from the dissociation of water is significant compared with 3H3O+ 4 from the dissociation of the weak acid. The sugar substitute saccharin 1C7H5NO3S2, for example, is a very weak acid having Ka = 2.1 * 10-12 and a solubility in water of 348 mg/100 mL. Calculate 3H3O+ 4 in a saturated solution of saccharin. (Hint: Equilibrium equations for the dissociation of saccharin and water must be solved simultaneously.)
