Question
Chapter 7, Problem 28E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation : The given bases should be ordered from the strongest to the weakest.
Concept Introduction :
For a strong acid, equilibrium lies far to the right. That means almost all the acid molecules are dissociated at the equilibrium and solution contains the free ions. For a weak acid, the equilibrium lies far to the left. That means most of the acid molecules still present as acid molecules and dissociated to a very small extent.
A strong acid yields a weak conjugate base. This conjugate base is much weaker than water. A weak acid has a conjugate base much stronger than water.
