Questions and Answers

What is the equilibrium constant for the dissociation of water (H2O) as given by Equation 1.2?

  • Keq = [H2O] / [H+][OH-]
  • Keq = [H+][OH-] / [H2O] (correct)
  • Keq = [H+][OH-]
  • Keq = [OH-] / [H2O][H+]

In pure water, what is the molar concentration of H+ ions?

  • [H+] = 1 X 10−14 M
  • [H+] = 55.5 M
  • [H+] = 1 X 10−7 M (correct)
  • [H+] = [OH−]

What is the value of the ion product constant (Kw) for water?

  • Kw = 1.8 X 10−16 M
  • Kw = 1 X 10−14 M2 (correct)
  • Kw = [H+] X[OH−]
  • Kw = 55.5 M
