Chapter 16.2, Problem 1PE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The concentration of OH- ion in the given solution of HCl has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Determining the expression for the Ion product constant of water:

Water is a poor electrolyte. So it ionizes to a very small extent and it is known as autoionization of water. It can be represented as follows:

H2O+H2OH3O++OH-

The rate constant for this equilibrium reaction is

Kc=[H3O+][OH-]

To indicate that the rate constant is being the rate constant for the autoionization of water, Kc can be replaced as Kw.

So, Kw=[H3O+][OH-]

Kw is known as the ion product constant of water.

Since H3O+ and H+ are interchangeably representing the hydrated proton, hence Kw can also be expressed as

Kw=[H+][OH-]

At 25oC,

Kw=[H+][OH-]=[H3O+][OH-]=1.0×1014
