Problem: In a 1.0x10-6 M solution of HNO3(aq) at 25 °C, identify the relative molar amounts of these species from Most to Least:H2OHNO3H3ONO3-OH-
FREE Expert Solution
- Dissolution of HNO3 (a strong acid) in water will appear as:
HNO3 (aq) + H2O (l) → H3O+ (aq) + NO3- (aq)
- Strong acid dissociates completely, hence HNO3 = 0
