assume that the volume is 1 litre

work out the moles of all components taking intyo account the fact that 1.8% of 0.15 moles of HX have dissociated = 0.0027 moles leaving only 0.1473 moles of acid
Moles of the other two components = 0.0027

sub into equation

Ah thank you :smile:

So,

Ka = [H+]2 / [HX]
= (0.00272) / 0.150
= 4.86 x 10-5
