equilibrium constant
« on: May 06, 2007, 05:18:03 AM »
Hi,

how to calculate the concentration of H2S if following
equilibrium constant is given:  H2S --> 2H+ + S2- = 1x10-21

if i know [S2-] then [H2S] would be :

1x10-21 / [S2-]2

or
1x10-21 / [S2-] ?

thx diablooo

Only [S2-] given? No way to solve the question.

Write down Ka equation for H2S.
