Given Ka=1.00×10−5,C=0.100 mol for a weak electrolyte, degree of dissociation ∝=CKa=0.1001×10−5=10−2=1% Related Theory In any acid-base reaction, the equilibrium will favour the reaction that moves the proton to the stronger base. This equilibrium constant is referred to as the ion-product constant for water, Kw. In pure water, some molecules act as bases and some as acids.
