It is given that,
Concentration of HClO2 = 0.15 M,
Ka (HClO2) = 1.1 x 10-2
Concentration of HClO = 0.15 M,
Ka (HClO) = 2.9 x 10-8
Since, Ka (HClO2) = 1.1 x 10-2 which is greater than the Ka (HClO) = 2.9 x 10-8
So, HClO2 is a strong acid than the HClO. Then neglecting the HClO and considering HClO2.
Reaction is given by:-
HClO2 H+ + ClO2-
So, Ka = {[H+] x [ClO2-]} / HClO2 ........ (1)
Consider [H+] = [ClO2-] = X. Then HClO2 = 0.15 - X
Since, X is very small then (0.15 - X) will be almost equal to 0.15.
Then from equation (1), we have
Ka = X2/(0.15) = 1.1 x 10-2
or X2 = 0.15 x 1.1 x 10-2 = 0.165 x 10-2
or X = 0.041 M
So, [H+] = [ClO2-] = 0.041 M.
Then pH = -log(0.041) = 1.39
So, the pH of a solution will be, pH = 1.39
