Question

Ka for the ionisation of Fe3+ to Fe(OH)2+ and H is 6.5×103 what is the maximum pH value which could be used so that at least 95% of the total Fe3+ in a dilute solution exists as Fe3+ (write your answer to nearest integer)?

Solution

Fe3++H2OFe(OH)2++H+;Kh=6.5×103
(1 - h)
[H]=Ch
and Kh=Ch21h and h=5100
Thus, 6.5×103=C×5×5×100100×100×95
C=2.47M[H]=2.47×5100
pH=0.9083
