Question
what is the equilibrium concentration of acetate ion if the equilibrium concentration of acetic acid is .40 M, the pH is 3.85, and Ka is 1.8E-05?

CH3COOH ==> H^+ + CH3COO^-
Ka = (H^+)(CH3COO^-)/CH3COOH)
It looks to me as if you have everything in the equation except for the one unknown. Solve for that.
