H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Strong acids
Strong acid and is completely dissociated (in
other words, 100 percent dissociated) in dilute
aqueous solution. Consequently, the [H3O+]
concentration of a 0.1 M HCl solution is 0.1 M.
Thus HCl is a stronger acid than water and
completely donates a proton to water to form
H3O+.
HCl(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Weak acids
acetic acid, CH3COOH (abbreviated AcOH), is a
weak acid and is only slightly dissociated, as
shown in Equation
CH3COOH(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + CH3COO Acid dissociation constant, Ka = = 1.7 x 10-5 at
25oC
Temperature is important .
Dissociation equilibrium
For a generalized acid dissociation,
Reversible reaction
Figure :The acidity of oxyacids increases with increasing electronegativity of the central atom.
As the electronegativity of the atom attached to an OH group increases, the ease with which the
hydrogen atom is ionized increases. The drift of electron density toward the electronegative atom
further polarizes the OH bond, which favors ionization. In addition, the electronegative atom will help
stabilize the conjugate base, which also leads to a stronger acid. Because Cl is more electronegative
than I, HClO is a stronger acid than HIO.

[A ]
pH = pKa + log
[ HA]
At half equivalence point, [A-] = [HA]. So the above equation becomes,
pH = pKa
So by measuring pH , pKa can be determined.

At half equivalence point, [A-] = [HA]. So the
above equation becomes,
pH = pKa
So by measuring pH , pKa can be determined.
Measurement of pH
