Detailed Solution

HCOOH(aq)c1-x+H2O(aq)HCOO(aq)x+H3O(aq)x HF(aq)c2-y+H2O(l)F(aq)y+H3O(aq)y

Due to the common ion effect, the concentration of H3O+ will be x+y in both the equations. Since the value is acid constants for both compounds are very less, hence we can neglect x in case of c1-x for HCOOH and y in case of c2-y for HF.

Ka(HCOOH)=x(x+y)c1;  Kb(HF)=y(x+y)c2 xy=Ka(HCOOH)c1Ka(HF)c2 [HCOO][F]=xy 2×104×0.26.6×104×0.1=23.3
