For each acid below, write the balanced chemical reaction for the dissociation of a proton to form the corresponding conjugate base. Also, write the expression for the \( K_a \). The answer for the ammonium ion is given as an example.

**Example:**

\[ \text{NH}_4^+ \leftrightarrows \text{NH}_3 + \text{H}^+ \]

\[ K_a = \frac{[\text{NH}_3][\text{H}^+]}{[\text{NH}_4^+]} \]

Or this could be written to include water. Either is fine.

\[ \text{NH}_4^+(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \leftrightarrows \text{NH}_3(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_3\text{O}^+(\text{aq}) \]

\[ K_a = \frac{[\text{NH}_3][\text{H}_3\text{O}^+]}{[\text{NH}_4^+]} \]

a) \(\text{CH}_3\text{CO}_2\text{H}\)

b) \(\text{HF}\)

c) \(\text{HOCl}\)

d) \(\text{HCO}_2\text{H}\)
