Question

A 0.01 M acetic acid solution is 1% ionised. An another acetic acid is 10% ionised. What will be the concentration of another acetic acid?

Answer 1

The ionization of acetic acid is incomplete, and so the equation is shown with a double arrow. The extent of ionization of weak acids varies, but is generally less than 10%. A 0.10 M solution of acetic acid is only about 1.3% ionized, meaning that the equilibrium strongly favors the reactants.
