In a 1.0x10^-4 M solution of HClO (aq), identify the relative molar amounts of these species.

Question:

In a 1.0x10^-4 M solution of HClO (aq), identify the relative molar amounts of these species.

Molarity

This is a measure of the concentration of a chemical species, in particular of a solute in a solution, in terms of the amount of substance per unit volume of solution. The units of molar concentration are moles per liter.

HClO is a weak acid, will not dissociate 100%

then

{eq}HClO + H_2O = H_3O^+ + ClO^- {/eq} {eq}K_a {/eq} < 1

{eq}H_3O^+ > OH^- {/eq}

{eq}H...
