Question
Title = q9a8 Challenging question: For the
diprotic acid H2CO3, Ka1 = 4.3 x 107 and Ka2
= 5.6 x 1011, If you dissolve some NaHCO3
in water, will the solution be acidic, basic, or
neutral? Note: write the reactions that
HCO3 can undergo in solution, and
determine their respective equilibrium
constants.

O cannot determine from information given
O I have no idea. Would you record and post a
solution to a question like this if I asked?
Question 10
Title = q10a1 For oxyacids, the acid strength
increases with (i)_ oxygens
attached to the central atom, and, if the
number or oxygens is held constant,
increases when the central atom is
electronegative.
