Model 2: A strong base increases the hydroxide ion concentration by a stoichiometric amount because it dissociates almost completely. For a weak base, only a small fraction of the base molecules accept a H* from water. Since water molecules that have given their H* to the base are now OH ions, this increases the hydroxide ion concentration of a solution, but the amount of increase is small. When a base accepts a H+ ion, this is called a base ionization reaction, and the equilibrium constant associated with this reaction is called Kb. OH- Na+ B HB+ Problems A solution of a strong base, NaOH Key Questions 1. Write out a reaction between a weak base, B, and water. (H₂O molecules are not shown) A solution of a weak base, E 1. Based on your reaction in Key Question (1) for this model, what is the expression for Kb? = 2. Pyridine, C5H5N, is a weak base that reacts in water and has a Kb 1.7 x 10⁹ at 25°C. (a) Write out the base ionization reaction between pyridine and water. (b) Write out the equilibrium expression for the Kь of pyridine in water.
