At 80^ C , distilled water has H ⁺ ions concentration equal to 1 10⁻⁶ ~mole / litre. The value of K_w at this temperature will be
Options
- A1 10⁻⁶
- B1 10⁻¹²
- C1 10⁻⁹
- D1 10⁻¹⁵ .
Correct answer
B. 1 10⁻¹²
Step-by-step solution
[ H ₃ O ⁺ ]=1 10⁻⁶ ~mol ~L ~L ⁻¹ or [ H ⁺ ]=1 10⁻⁶ ~mol ~L ⁻¹ As for distilled water [ H ⁺ ]= [ OH ⁻ ] aligned & [ H ⁺ ]= [ OH ⁻ ]=1 10⁻⁶ ~mol ~L ⁻¹ & ~K _w= [ H ⁺ ] [ OH ⁻ ]=10⁻¹² ~mol ^2 ~L ⁻² aligned
