5 Terms
Benzoic Acid (C6H5COOH)
A weak acid that ionizes in water to form benzoate ion and hydrogen ions.
Conjugate Base
The species that remains after the acid donates a proton; in this case, the benzoate ion (C6H5COO-).
Conjugate Acid
The species formed when a base accepts a proton; in the context of the equilibrium, it refers to the hydrogen ion (H+).
Acid Ionization Equilibrium Expression (Ka)
Ka = [C6H5COO-][H+]/[C6H5COOH], representing the ratio of the concentration of products to reactants at equilibrium.
Equilibrium Constant Ka
Value of 6.5 x 10^5 suggests that the products are favored at equilibrium.
