What are conjugate acid and bases?

1 Answer

Answer :

When an acid is dissolved in water it will form H3O+ ions and an anion the anion of an acid is called conjugate base and H3O+ is called conjugate acid e.g.
 CH3OOH + H2O H3O+ + CH3COO–
 Acid Base Conjugate acid Conjugate base

Description : How value of Kc can help to predict the extent to which a chemical reaction can take place?

Last Answer : The extent of reaction depends upon the magnitude of Kc. i.e. (i) Very small value of Kc: when Kc is very small the forward reaction will not occur to an appreciable extent ... neither very large nor very small, the equilibrium mixture contains appreciable amounts of both reactant and products.

Description : How Kc can be applied to calculate direction of chemical reaction?

Last Answer : (i) If < Kc Then the reaction will proceed in the forward direction until the equilibrium is established. (ii) If > Kc Then the reaction will proceed in the backward direction until the equilibrium is established. If = kc Then the reaction is already in equilibrium.
