The balanced chemical equation for the ionization of phenol is:
.
The initial concentrations of phenol, phenoxide ion and hydronium ion are 0.05, 0 and 0 respectively.
Corresponding equilibrium concentrations are x and x respectively.
x is very small (as the ionization constant is very small) . Hence, x can be ignored in the denominator.
Let be the degree of dissociation of phenol in presence of 0.01 M phenoxide.
The dissociation of phenoxide is as represented:
Also,
M (as the degree of dissociation is very small.)
