In order to answer this question, let's recall our equation for delta g that involves a k constant.
00:13
So that equation is going to be delta g is equal to negative rt and times the natural log of k.
00:26
In this case, k that we're going to be looking for is going to be k.
00:33
K -a -1.
00:36
K -a -1 is the acid dissociation constant of h -c -l -o, and we know that we're going to be looking for this k -a, because the reaction that we are looking at, which is h -c -l -o plus water, becomes h -3 -o -0 plus and c -l -o -minus.
01:28
And this is the same equation that gets defined by k -a -1 of h -c -l -o.
01:38
As you can see, the hydrogen from the acid goes to the water, makes the hydronium ion, which is characteristic of an acid, and it leaves behind a conjugate base.
01:56
So we can write below our conjugate base and our conjugate acid...
