Please answer these questions

Consider the following list when answering the questions that follow:
C6H5CO2H, Ką = 6.3 x 10-5
C6H5CO2 -, Kp = 1.6 x 10-10
CN", Kp = 2.5 x 105
HCN , Ką = 4.0 x 10-10
For the reaction between benzoic acid (C6H5CO2H ) and a solution containing cyanide ions (CN" ):
(a) The name of the conjugate base produced is
(b) The name of the conjugate acid produced is
(c) The reaction is
favoured (type 'reactant or 'product'), because the reactants are the
(type 'weaker' or 'stronger') set
of acid and base.
