Calculate the equilibrium constant in terms of concentrations (Molarity) for the following reactions given the ionic force and the Kb and Ksp:

1. OAc- + H2O = HOAc + OH-
Kb = 5.6exp-10, Ionic Strength = 0.10

It's all good.

aaronq · Answer

so you need to use activity instead of concentration. i dont remember the equations off the top of my head but i'm sure you have them. If not let me do a quick search on google
