Interpretation:
For the given reaction under given conditions the balanced equation, conjugate acid-base pair and the direction of equilibrium should be identified.
Concept introduction:
: If a species loses a proton then it is considered as
Strong Acids: Acids that dissociates into ions completely which results in easy donation of protons are considered as strong acids. Strong acid forms weaker conjugated base.
Weak Acids: Acids that do not easily dissociate into ions completely which has difficulty in proton donation are considered as weak acids. Weak acid forms stronger conjugated base
: If a species receives one proton, then it is considered as
Strong Base: Bases that has strong attraction towards protons and accepts readily. Strong base forms weaker conjugated acid.
Weak Base: Bases that has little affinity towards protons. Weak base forms stronger conjugated acid.
If a base receives one proton, then the formed species is a conjugate acid whereas an acid lose one proton, then the formed species is a conjugated base.
Equilibrium: A state of a
The principle says that when a disturbance is given to equilibrium of a chemical reaction, the equilibrium will respond by shifting to the direction at which the effect of disturbance is nullified
Balanced Chemical Reaction: On accordance with law of conservation of mass, for any chemical reaction, total masses of reactants and products must be equal.
