A solution containing only 4.0 uM of Ca(OH)2 and the compound Hydrocyanic
acid. This compound in solution is partially dissociated in the solution and in
equilibrium with a specific concentration 68.50 ppmv in the headspace of the
container. The total pressure of the headspace is 1.5 atm and the temperature is
25 °C. What is the resulting pH? Make sure to show all your work.
The dissociation occurs in the following manner:
Ca(OH)2 - Ca2+ + 2 OH- (complete dissociation)
HCN - CN- + H+(complete dissociation)
HCN dissociation constant Ka=4.5 *10^-io
