Hello, Iβm Avinto, your guide to mastering the Ionic Equilibrium of Acids and Bases! Weak acids and bases only partially ionize in water, leading to equilibrium constants known as
πΎ
π
K
a
β
(acid dissociation constant) and
πΎ
π
K
b
β
(base dissociation constant). These constants allow us to quantify the strength of acids and bases. Together, weβll dive into ionization, calculate

, and solve real-world problems. Letβs explore the equilibrium behind acidity and basicity!
