Question
  1. The following equilibrium constants have been determined for hydrosulfuric acid at 25ºC:

H2S(aq) ⇌ H+(aq)  +  HS(aq)            Kc = 9.5 × 10–8

HS(aq) ⇌ H+(aq)  +  S2–(aq)             K″c = 1.0 × 10–19

Calculate the equilibrium constant for the following reaction at the same temperature. 

H2S(aq) ⇌ 2H+(aq)  +  S2–(aq)
