Description

In experiment C1.7.2.1, the acidity (pKa value) of acetic acid is determined. Between an acid HA and its base A- the following equilibrium reaction takes place in an aqueous solution :

According to the law of mass action, the equilibrium position is described by the equilibrium constant Ka:

By analogy to the pH value, the pKa value is given as the negative base 10 logarithm of the numerical value of Ka

The lower the value of pKa, the higher the acidity. The pKa value is numerically equal to the pH value of a solution when the protonated and non-protonated forms are present in equal concentration.
