Concept introduction:
The dissociation constant of the weak acid is calculated by the following formula:
The expression can be written as follows:
The strong acid dissociates completely in comparison to the weak acid.
Answer to Problem 1E
The concentration of [HI] = 0.0892 M.
Explanation of Solution
The complete dissociation of strong acid occurs in the solution, whereas weak acid is not able to dissociate completely.
From the given question −
Hydroiodic acid, HI = strong acid
The molarity of [HI] or [H3O+] ion = 0.0892 M
As hydroiodic acid is strong acid it will dissociate completely in the solution. Hence, the initial concentration of [HI] = 0.0892 M.
