Chapter 5, Problem 24CTQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Weaker and stronger base on the basis of ${\text{pK}}_{\text{a}}$ among bases mentioned below should be determined.

  

Concept introduction: The dissociation constant of acid represents strength of acid in solution. It is denoted by ${\text{K}}_{\text{a}}$ . The expression of ${\text{pK}}_{\text{a}}$ is as follows:

  ${\text{pK}}_{\text{a}}=-\log {\text{K}}_{\text{a}}$
