The equilibrium constant for the reaction between a weak acid and a weak base can be calculated from the relevant Ka, Kb and Kw using the rules for combining equilibrium constants. Find the Knet for the reaction between formic acid (HCO2H) and ammonia given the Ka (HCO2H) = 1.8 x 10⁻⁴ and Kb ammonia = 1.8 x 10⁻
