Example 12.7
In example 12.7 of the text, why is the "-x" eliminated from the denominator of the expression for Ka? Does this portion of the equation not affect the result?

Re: Example 12.7
The "-x" is eliminated because the Ka is so small that the change in initial concentration is insignificant.
