As we noted earlier, the concentration of water is essentially constant for all reactions in aqueous solution, so \([H_2O]\) in Equation \ref{16.5.2} can be incorporated into a new quantity, the acid ionization constant (\(K_a\)), also called the acid dissociation constant: \[K_a=K[H_2O]=\dfrac{[H_3O^+][A^]}{[HA]} \label{16.5.3}\]. This equation does not involve the solvent; it therefore also represents the process of neutralization in an inert solvent, such as benzene, or in the complete absence of a solvent.

The leveling effect applies to solutions of strong bases as well: In aqueous solution, any base stronger than \(\ce{OH^{}}\) is leveled to the strength of \(\ce{OH^{}}\) because \(\ce{OH^{}}\) is the strongest base that can exist in equilibrium with water. Thus these water samples will be slightly acidic. The dissociation of ammonia in water is as follows: NH 3 (aq) + H 2 O(l) NH 4 + (aq) + OH-(aq) The reaction of acetic acid with ammonia produces ammonium acetate, which is a strong electrolyte because it dissociates more readily in water increasing the ion concentration: CH 3 CO 2 H(aq) + NH 3 (aq) NH 4 CH 3 CO 2 (aq) Safety: a proton to form the conjugate acid and a hydroxide ion. {\displaystyle {\ce {H3O+}}} Weak bases react with water to produce the hydroxide ion, as shown in the following general equation, where B is the parent base and BH+ is its conjugate acid: \[\ce{B(aq) + H2O(l) <=>BH^{+}(aq) + OH^{} (aq)} \label{16.5.4}\].

Just as with \(pH\), \(pOH\), and \(pK_w\), we can use negative logarithms to avoid exponential notation in writing acid and base ionization constants, by defining \(pK_a\) as follows: Similarly, Equation \ref{16.5.10}, which expresses the relationship between \(K_a\) and \(K_b\), can be written in logarithmic form as follows: The values of \(pK_a\) and \(pK_b\) are given for several common acids and bases in Table \(\PageIndex{1}\) and Table \(\PageIndex{2}\), respectively, and a more extensive set of data is provided in Tables E1 and E2. acid-dissociation equilibria, we can build the [H2O]

This timescale is consistent with the time it takes for hydrogen bonds to reorientate themselves in water. In this case, there must be at least partial formation of ions from acetic acid in water. we can substitute the equilibrium concentration of ammonia (NH3), ammonium ion (NH4+) and Self-dissociation of water and liquid ammonia may be given as examples: For a strong acid and a strong base in water, the neutralization reaction is between hydrogen and hydroxide ionsi.e., H3O+ + OH 2H2O. %PDF-1.4

If the pH changes by 1 near the pKa value, the dissociation status of the acid changes by an extremely large amount.
