- $pOH = log[H^+]$
- $pOH = -log[H^+]$
How does the net direction of an acid-base reaction depend on relative acid and base strengths?
How does the net direction of an acid-base reaction depend on relative acid and base strengths?
- The reaction proceeds to the lesser extent in the direction where a weaker acid and weaker base form a stronger acid and stronger base.
- The reaction proceeds to the greater extent in the direction where a stronger acid and stronger base form a weaker acid and weaker base. (correct)
- The reaction proceeds to the greater extent in the direction where a weaker acid and stronger base form a stronger acid and weaker base.
- The reaction proceeds randomly without any relation to the strengths of the acids and bases involved.
What is one way to determine the strength of acids based on their pH values?
What is one way to determine the strength of acids based on their pH values?
- Acid strength increases as the pH value increases.
- Acid strength remains constant regardless of the pH value.
- Acid strength increases as the pH value decreases. (correct)
- Acid strength is not related to the pH value of the solution.
