Medal and fan
Would saying that Ka and Kb are inversely proportional be correct?

abb0t · Answer

$\sf K_a \times K_b = K_w$ and solving for either Ka or Kb, when you have one or the other: $\sf K_a= K_w\frac{1}{K_b}$

Would you say they are inversely proportional knowing this?

So directly then?

This has nothing to do with Ka and Kb, but remember that VP=k and what kind of proportion is V to P in that equation? as Volume increase what would happen to the pressure. Same goes for Ka if Ka increases what would happen to Kb?

anonymous · Answer

Alright, that's what I though....inversely.

abb0t · Answer

Yes.

What are you talking about @sweetburger ?

anonymous · Answer

He's talking about the equation, he was trying to relate the inverse relationship between volume and pressure to the equation of Ka*Kb=Kw.
