The pKa value for sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is 10.3. This provides a measure of the acid strength of bicarbonate.
People often make the mistake of reporting the pKa value of 6.3 for bicarbonate. However, that is the pKa value of carbonic acid (not bicarbonate). It relates to the ease of the first deprotonation of carbonic acid to form bicarbonate. The pKa of bicarbonate relates to the deportation of bicarbonate to form carbonate. This distinction is important, since carbonic acid has two pKa's, the higher of which represents that second deprotonation.
pKa=40
how do you calculate pKa
pKa=2.86
pKa = 15
It is around pKa=13
Doxofylline Pka value is about 9.8.
pKa (dissociation constant) is variable with temperature.
Several part problem. Get molarity of NaHCO3. (150 ml)( M NaHCO3) = (150 ml)(0.44 M HCl) = 0.44 M NaHCO3 --------------------------- get moles NaHCO3 ( 150 ml = 0.150 Liters ) 0.44 M NaHCO3 = moles NaHCO3/0.150 Liters = 0.066 moles NaHCO3 ---------------------------------------get grams 0.066 moles NaHCO3 (84.008 grams/1 mole NaHCO3) = 5.54 grams NaHCO3 needed ---------------------------------------------answer
5 M NaHCO3
The answer is NaHCO3
The pka of a protonated ether (the conjugate acid) is about -3.5
The pKa of sulfonic acid is < 0
