finding pH for weak acids

Postby Danielle Fabian 1H » Tue Dec 01, 2015 9:44 pm

When you are constructing the ICE charts for these problems, do you always subtract the amount of base (in moles) by the amount of the acid (in moles) when solving for C?

If you start with a weak acid and add in a base, then you would subtract the moles of base from the mol of acid.
