7.60 The pH of 0.1M solution of cyanic acid (HCNO) is 2.34. Calculate the ionization constant of the acid and its degree of ionization in the solution.

c = 0.1 M

pH = 2.34

-log[H+]=pH-log[H+]=2.34[H+]=4.5×10-3Also,[H+]=4.5×10-3=0.1×α4.5×10-30.1=αα=45×10-3=.045Then,Kα=2=0.1×45×10-32=202.5×10-6=2.02×10-4
