Title: How do you write the chemical equation if you have weak acid-strong base ? Post by: ripsmithy on Apr 14, 2013 If you have a weak acid-strong base titration in which the nicotinicacid, HC6H4NO2, is titrated with NaOH
Can you please help with just the chemical equation for this situation? what would it be? Title: How do you write the chemical equation if you have weak acid-strong base ? Post by: fiercefoxie on Apr 14, 2013 HC6H4NO2 + NaOH <==> NaC6H4NO2 + H2O
NaC6H4NO2 is a slightly basic salt. The reaction is in equilibrium because the HC6H4NO2 doesnt fully ionize. This is also a buffer as long as both HC6H4NO2 and NaC6H4NO2 are present. |
