Question

KHS can act as a weak acid or a weak base.
HS^-(aq) + H₂O(l)

KHS can act as a weak acid or a weak base. HS<sup>-</sup>(aq) + H<sub>2</sub>O(l) S<sup>2-</sup>(aq) + H<sub>3</sub>O<sup>+</sup>(aq) K<sub>a2</sub> = 1.3 x 10<sup>-13</sup> HS<sup>-</sup>(aq) + H<sub>2</sub>O(l) H<sub>2</sub>S(aq) + OH<sup>-</sup>(aq) K<sub>b2</sub> = 1.0 x 10<sup>-7</sup> Which of the following statements is correct? A) A solution of 0.1 M K<sub>2</sub>S and 0.1 M KHS will be acidic. B) A solution of 0.01 M H<sub>2</sub>S will have a pH = 2. C) A solution of 0.1 M KHS will be weakly basic. D) H<sub>2</sub>S is over 90% ionized in water solution. E) The S<sup>2-</sup> ion concentration in a 0.1 M KHS solution does not depend on pH.
