Equal amounts of two acids—HCl and HCO 2 H (formic acid)—are placed in aqueous solution. When equilibrium has been achieved, the HCl solution has a much greater electrical conductivity than the HCO 2 H solution. Which reaction is more product-favored at equilibrium? HCl(aq)+H 2 O( l ) ⇄ H 3 O + (aq)+Cl - (aq) HCO 2 H(aq)+H 2 O( l ) ⇄ H 3 O + (aq)+HCO 2 - (aq )

Solution Summary: The author identifies the reaction which gives more favored product at equilibrium. Strong acids ionize in water very easly, weak acid dissociates in a solution.
