Ka vs pKa - CHEMISTRY COMMUNITY
Jan 18, 2022 · Ka will be the disassociation acid constant that will represent the strength of the acid whereas pKa is the -log of Ka. They both have an inverse relationship: the larger the Ka, the smaller …
Ka Concept - CHEMISTRY COMMUNITY
Dec 6, 2024 · If the Ka is high, the reaction favors the right, meaning more H+ would be dissolved in water. Therefore, if Ka is high, that acid is a strong acid. Top 2 posts • Page 1 of 1 Return to “Acidity …
Kw explanation - CHEMISTRY COMMUNITY
Jan 17, 2024 · Kw explanation Postby Wesley Greene » Wed Jan 17, 2024 4:24 am Can someone please explain Kw, its significance, and its relationship to Ka,Kb and water. I do not understand the …
pKa and Ka - CHEMISTRY COMMUNITY
Dec 9, 2017 · Ka is the equilibrium constant for the reaction, so a small Ka means there are few products, indicating a weaker acid. I think of pKa and Ka as inversely related; the smaller the Ka, the …
Higher vs lower Ka - CHEMISTRY COMMUNITY
Jan 27, 2024 · Higher values of Ka or Kb will indicate a stronger acid or base, respectively. That means if there are two solutions with the same amount of two different acids, the solution with the acid with …
pKa and Ka - CHEMISTRY COMMUNITY
Dec 7, 2018 · The acid dissociation constant, Ka, is a quantitative indicator of the strength of an acid in a solution. Because Ka is often an extremely large number, chemists simplify it to a smaller number, …
