The products of the given reaction and its occurrence to any measurable extent are to be predicted. Concept Introduction: Strong acids ionize completely in aqueous solutions to produce hydronium ions and their conjugate base. The conjugate base produced by a stronger acid is very weak, so that it does not recombine with hydronium ions to form acid. Conjugate bases of stronger acids are relatively more stable than the conjugate bases of weaker acids. Thus, a stable conjugate base will have lower affinity for a proton than an unstable conjugate base. Similarly, conjugate acids that are less stable come from weak bases and tend to lose a proton more easily as compared to stable conjugate acids that are derived fromstrong bases and do not lose their proton easily.

Concept Introduction:
Strong acids ionize completely in aqueous solutions to produce hydronium ions and their conjugate base. The conjugate base produced by a stronger acid is very weak, so that it does not recombine with hydronium ions to form acid.
Conjugate bases of stronger acids are relatively more stable than the conjugate bases of weaker acids. Thus, a stable conjugate base will have lower affinity for a proton than an unstable conjugate base.
Similarly, conjugate acids that are less stable come from weak bases and tend to lose a proton more easily as compared to stable conjugate acids that are derived fromstrong bases and do not lose their proton easily.
