A 0.00474 mol sample of HY is dissolved in enough H2O to form 0.888 L of solution. If the pH of the solution is 2.64, what is the Ka (dissociation constant) of HY?

initial concentration HY = 0.00474 mol/ 0.888 L= 0.00534 M

[H+]= 10^- 2.64 = 0.00229 M = [Y-]
[HY]= 0.00534 - 0.00229 = 0.00305

Ka = [H+][Y-] / [HY]= (0.00229)^2 / 0.00305 =1.72 x 10^-3
