Which of the following chemical reactions is most likely to have the largest equilibrium constant K? A. CH3COOH(aq) + H2O(l) CH3COO- (aq) + H3O+(aq)
B. HCl(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
C. H3PO4(aq) + NH3(aq) H2PO4-(aq) + NH4+(aq)
D. CH3COO- (aq) + H2O(l) CH3COOH(aq) + OH-(aq)

The answer to this question is HCl(aq) + H2O(l) = H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq). HCl is considered a strong acid meaning it is 100% ionized in solution. The equilibrium constant is therefore very large.

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.
