for those that have taken the 6r exam, do you have any idea what the question regarding ionization constants (from physical science) is in reference to? I haven't come across it in any of my studying. thanks

Ionization constant is just the Ksp expression, but the [ ]'s do not have to be in equilibrium. It is just like the reaction quotient for the Keq.

It is also called the ion product.


I am assuming you are talking about #31

H2S is a weak acid, therefore, it will have a small Ksp (much less than 1). That is why the answer if less than 1.
