The dissociation equilibrium is 

CH3? COOH? CH3? COO + H+.
Let α be the degree of dissociation.
The equilibrium concentrations of CH3? COOH, CH3COO and H+ are c (1−α), c (α) and c (α) respectively.
The equilibrium constant expression is Kc? = [CH3? COO] [H+]? / [CH3? COOH].

Kc? = (cα) (cα) / c (1−α)? ≈cα2

α= (Ka? / c)1/2? = (1.74*10−5 / 0.05)1/2?

=1.865*10−2
[CH3? CO]= [H+]= cα= 0.05*1.865*10−2= 9.33*10−4M
pH= −log [H+]= −log (9.33*10−4)= 3.03

The concentration of acetate ion and its pH are 9.33*10−4 and 3.03 respectivel

(i) To calculate  [HS] in absence of HCl:
Let,   [HS] = x M.

H2? S? H+ + HS
The initial concentrations of H2? S, H+ and HS are 0.1 M, 0 M and 0 M respectively.
Their final concentrations are 0.1-x M, x M and x M respectively.

Ka? = [H2? S] [H+] [HS]?
  9.1*10−8 = x * x / (0.1−x)?
In the denominator, 0.1-x can be approximated to 0.1 as x is very small.
   9.1*10−8=x*x / (0.1)?

x=9.54*10−5M= [HS]

(ii) To calculate  [HS] in presence of HCl:
Let  [HS]= y M.

 H2? S? H++HS
The initial concentrations of H2? S, H+ and HS a

Ka = x2 / (0.05 - x) = 1.0 x 10-10

=> x2 / 0.05 = 1.0 x 10-10

=>           x2 = 5 x 10-12

=>             x= 2.2 x 10-6 M

In presence of 0.01 C6H5Na, suppose y is the amount of phenol dissociated, then at equilibrium

[C6H5OH] = 0.05 – y ≈ 0.05,

  [C6H5O-] = 0.01 + y ≈ 0.01 M, [H+] = yM

Therefore, Ka = (0.01) (y) / (0.05) = 1.0 x 10-10

 => y = 5 x 10-10

and α = y/c = (5 x 10-10) / (5 x 10-2)

= 10-8

For F, Kb =Kw/Ka= 10-14/ (6.8 x 10-4)

= 1.47 x 10-11 = 1.5 x 10-11 .

For HCOO-, Kb = 10-14/ (1.8 x 10-4)

= 5.6 x 10-11

For CN, Kb= 10-14/ (4.8 X 10-9)

= 2.08 x 10-6

pH = – log [H+] or log [H+] = – pH = – 3.76 = 4.24
Therefore, [H+] = Antilog 4.24 = 1.738 x 10-4 = 1.74 x 10-4 M

pH = – log [H+] = – log (3.8 x 10-3) = – log 3.8 + 3 = 3 – 0.5798 = 2.4202 = 2.42

(a) OH ions can donate an electron pair and act as Lewis base.

(b) F– ions can donate an electron pair and actas Lewis base.

(c) H+ ions can accept an electron pair and act as Lewis acid.

(d) BCl3 can accept an electron pair since Boron atom is electron deficient. It is a Lewis acid.
