Ka


Acid Disassociation Constant [Ka]


—Log Acid Dissociation Constant [pKa]


Methanoic Acid
(Formic Acid)
pKa = 3.75

Ethanoic Acid
(Acetic Acid)
pKa = 4.76

Methanol
(Methyl Alcohol)
pKa = 15.9

Ethanol
(Ethyl Alcohol)
pKa = 15.5

What if you know the pKa of a substance, and want to know how that translates to acid dissociation constant?

Just remember:



Acids & Bases
[Ka] [pKa] [H+] [pH]
