Acid dissociation constantIn chemistry, an acid dissociation constant (also known as acidity constant, or acid-ionization constant; denoted Ka{\displaystyle K_{a}}) is a quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution. It is the equilibrium constant for a chemical reactionHA↽−−⇀A−+H+{\displaystyle {\ce {HA <=> A^- + H^+}}}known as dissociation in the context of acid–base reactions. The chemical species HA is an acid that dissociates into A, called the conjugate base of the acid, and a hydrogen ion, H. The sy...
Aliphatic compoundAliphatic compounds (; G. aleiphar, fat, oil) are chemical compounds containing the element carbon that are not aromatic compounds. Aliphatic compounds can be saturated, where all C-C bonds are single bonds (e.g., hexane), or unsaturated, where double or triple bonds are present between carbon atoms (e.g., hexene, hexyne). Other definitionsThe definition given above is that promulgated by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), which sets accepted definitions for chemical terms and nomencl...Aliphatic compoundAliphatic compounds (; G. aleiphar, fat, oil) are chemical compounds containing the element carbon that are not aromatic compounds.
