At 298 K, 1 pH unit is approximately equal to 59 mV. [2] When the electrode is calibrated with solutions of known concentration, by means of a strong acid–strong base titration, for example, a modified Nernst equation is assumed. = + [] where s is an empirical
At half-neutralization the ratio [A −] / [HA] = 1; since log(1) = 0, the pH at half-neutralization is numerically equal to pK a. Conversely, when pH = pK a, the concentration of HA is equal to the concentration of A −. The buffer region extends over the approximate range pK a ± 2. Buffering is weak outside the range pK a ± 1.
Indeed, for ideal-gas reactions K p is independent of pressure. [17] Pressure dependence of the water ionization constant at 25 °C. In general, ionization in aqueous solutions tends to increase with increasing pressure. In a condensed phase, the pressure dependence of the equilibrium constant is associated with the reaction volume. [18] For ...
For example, if a macromolecule M has three binding sites, K′ 1 describes a ligand being bound to any of the three binding sites. In this example, K′ 2 describes two molecules being bound and K′ 3 three molecules being bound to the macromolecule. The microscopic or individual dissociation constant describes the equilibrium of ligands ...
The Henderson–Hasselbalch equation relates the pH of a solution containing a mixture of the two components to the acid dissociation constant, K a of the acid, and the concentrations of the species in solution. [6] Simulated titration of an acidified solution of a weak acid (pK a = 4.7) with alkali
To derive these, solutes are assumed to be electrolytes that dissociate fully into a fixed number of ions given by the van’t Hoff factor. Also, mixing volumes are neglected and the molar volume of water is calculated by v w = M w ρ w {\textstyle v_{w}={\frac {M_{w}}{\rho _{w}}}} , where ρ w {\textstyle \rho _{w}} and M w {\textstyle M_{w ...
It is also frequently referred to by the symbol P, especially in the English literature. It is also known as n-octanol-water partition ratio. [63] [64] [65] K ow, being a type of partition coefficient, serves as a measure of the relationship between lipophilicity (fat solubility) and hydrophilicity (water solubility) of a substance. The value ...
An often considered quantity is the dissociation constant K d ≡ 1 / K a , which has the unit of concentration, despite the fact that strictly speaking, all association constants are unitless values. The inclusion of units arises from the simplification that such constants are calculated solely from concentrations, which is not the case.
