If you want to find the value of the acid dissociation constant for a weak acid you look up tables of values. For example, the value of Ka for acetic acid (ethanoic acid) is always tabulated.
But what if you want the value of a base dissociation constant? What if you want the value of Kb for the acetate ion (ethanoate ion)? You won't find this value in a table, you'll have to know how to calculate it!
AUS-e-TUTE has just added new resources to help you understand and apply the concept of acid and base hydrolysis including calculations. AUS-e-TUTE Members should log-in to access the new tutorial, game, test, exam (with worked solutions), and teacher members can access the worksheet wizard to make printable worksheets and quizzes (with answers).
If you are not an AUS-e-TUTE Member, the "free-to-view" tutorial is currently available at
