For HClO;
Initial [HClO] = moles/volume = 0.740/4.50 = 0.1644 M
1000 * Ka = 1000 * 3*10^-8 = 3*10^-5
Thus, approximation can be made here as
0.1644 > 3*10^-5
HClO -------> H+ + ClO- , Ka = 3*10^-8
0.1644 0 0 (at t =0)
0.1644-x x x (at equilibrium)
Ka = [H+] [ClO-] / [HClO]
3*10^-8 = x * x / (0.1644 - x)
Since, Ka is very less then x is very less.
So, 0.1644 - x = 0.1644
3*10^-8 * 0.1644 = x^2
x = 7.024*10^-5
Thus, at equlibrium;
[H+ ] = [ClO-] = x = 7.024*10^-5 M
[HClO] = 0.1644 - x = 0.1644 M
For HF;
Initial [HF] = 0.254/4.50 = 0.05644 M
1000 * Ka = 1000 * 6.60 * 10^-4 = 0.66
0.66 > 0.05644
Hence approximation cannot be made.
HF ------> H+ + F- , Ka = 6.60*10^-4
0.05644 0 0 (at t=0)
0.05644-x x x (at equilibrium)
6.60*10^-4 = x*x / (0.05644-x)
0.00003725 - 0.00066x = x^2
x^2 + 0.00066x - 0.00003725 = 0
After solving above quadratic equation;
x = 0.005782
Hence at equilibrium;
[H+] = [F-] = x = 0.005782 M
[HF] = 0.05644-x = 0.05644 - 0.005782 = 0.05066 M
Since HF is stronger acid thus [H+] is higher for it from HClO (7.024*10^-5 - very less concentration). And [H+] from HF will drive pH of solution.
pH = - log [H+] = - log (0.005782) = 2.24
[HClO] = 0.1644 M
[ClO-] = 7.024*10^-5 M
[HF] = 0.05066 M
[F-] = 0.005782 M
