Law: Ostwald's Dilution Law
The degree of dissociation of a weak electrolyte is inversely proportional to the square root of its concentration.
| Feature | Weak Acid | Weak Base |
|---|---|---|
| Dissociation | HA ⇌ H⁺ + A⁻ | BOH ⇌ B⁺ + OH⁻ |
| Constant | Acid dissociation constant (Ka) | Base dissociation constant (Kb) |
| Expression | \[K_{a}=\frac{[H^{+}][A^{-}]}{[HA]}\] | \[K_{b}=\frac{[B^{+}][OH^{-}]}{[BOH]}\] |
| Ostwald’s Dilution Law | \[\alpha=\sqrt{\frac{K_{a}}{C}}\] or \[\alpha=\sqrt{K_{a}\cdot V}\] | \[\alpha=\sqrt{\frac{K_{b}}{C}}\] or \[\alpha=\sqrt{K_{b}\cdot V}\] |
