Chemistry
Ionic equilibrium (ionization of acids and bases)
In this Class 11 Chemistry topic from the chapter Equilibrium, students explore how acids, bases and electrolytes ionize in aqueous solutions and how this process establishes ionic equilibrium. They distinguish strong and weak electrolytes, relate the extent of ionization to equilibrium constants, and use Ka, Kb and the ionic product of water (Kw) to understand acidic and basic strength. The topic also develops pH and pOH calculations, helping students interpret hydrogen- and hydroxide-ion concentrations in solutions.
