    How does Ka/pKa and Kb/pKb relate to acid/base strength??

    high Ka doesnt mean equilibrium bc Ka isnt a measure of eq, u generally use Ka equations for weak acids because they don't completely disocciate so u cant just plug the [H+] value into -log[H+] to get the pH, if that makes sense. but u can do that with strong acids. so for weak acids = use Ka...

    How does Ka/pKa and Kb/pKb relate to acid/base strength??

    WHAT i think ur mixing it up with something else Ka = how readily sum disociates high Ka = disociates so readily its crazy = strong acid strong acid = HCl = dissociates completely into H+ and Cl- = therefore the high Ka is justified HCl ≠ equilibrium rxn

    Summary of arrows for reactions - when is it equilibrium?

    don't take my word for it i might be wrong, we weren't tested on it so i never practiced it

    How does Ka/pKa and Kb/pKb relate to acid/base strength??

    yep exactly right, the higher the Ka the more readily it dissociates which makes sense for strong acids compared to weak acids and fml i just realised i got a question on that wrong in my trials

    Summary of arrows for reactions - when is it equilibrium?

    yeah i think its double arrow for net ionics

    How does Ka/pKa and Kb/pKb relate to acid/base strength??

    high Ka = strong acid. Low pKa = strong acid. think of it like [H+] concentration vs pH, high H conc = low pKa

    Summary of arrows for reactions - when is it equilibrium?

    well yeah generally w/ ppt or dissolution equations there's a double arrow from the solid to the disassociated ions

    Acid/Base theory clarification

    yeah u should check with ur teacher specifically tho bc some schools only got to go thru half of mod 7 before their trials but def memorise it just in case arr limitations: yeah so that ammonia ammonium rxn is bc his theory couldn't explain the amphoteric nature of substances. he also couldn't...
