Consider the equilibrium: HCOOH(aq) + F-(aq) <----> HCOO-(aq) + HF (aq) Given that the Ka of HCOOH = 1.8 x 10-4 and the Ka of HF = 6.8 x 10-4, calculate the equilibrium constant and predict whether the equilibrium favors reactants or products.
0.265; reactants
3.8 x 10-8; reactants
3.0 x 10-9; reactants
3.8; products

Hey there!:

K = Ka * Kb / Kw

Ka = 1.8*10⁻⁴

Kb = 10⁻¹⁴ / 6.8*10⁻⁴

K =  1.8*10⁻⁴ * ( 10⁻¹⁴/ 6.8*10⁻⁴ ) * ( 1 / 10⁻¹⁴ )

K =  = 1.8 / 6.8

K = 0.265

Answer A

Therefore:

K is less than on the forward reaction is not favorable .


Hope That helps!
