- One method for calculating Zeff is to use the equation
Problem 129
where E is the energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom and n is the principal quantum number of the elec-tron. Use this equation to calculate Zeff values for the highest-energy electrons in potassium (E = 418.8 kJ/mol) and krypton (E = 1350.7 kJ/mol). - At 0 °C, the density of liquid water is 0.9998 g/mL and the value of Kw is 1.14 * 10-15. What fraction of the molecules in liquid water are dissociated at 0 °C? What is the percent dissociation at 0 °C? What is the pH of a neutral solution at 0 °C?
