### Ionic Dissociation

Can someone explain the steps for this problem please? The ionic dissociation of water is given by the following reaction: The standard enthalpy for the reaction is 58 kJ. mol-1. The Kw for the reaction at 25 degrees Celsius is 10^-14. Is a pH of 7 acidic or basic at 10 degrees Celsius? The reaction is 2H2O (l) ---> H3O+ (aq) + OH- (aq)

### Re: Ionic Dissociation

With this question, you have to use the vant hoff equation. The question gives the unknowns except for K. You can solve for K, and they put that back into the original balanced equation and solve for conc of h30+

Return to “Appications of the Nernst Equation (e.g., Concentration Cells, Non-Standard Cell Potentials, Calculating Equilibrium Constants and pH)”
