What is the chemical equation for acetic acid and potassium hydroxide?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
Acetic acid (Ethanoic acid) is a weak acid, and when reacted with a strong base like Potassium hydroxide, it establishes an equilibrium:
CH3COOH + KOH <=> CH3COOK + H2O
The reaction mixture contains all four products in different proportions, and as such, an acid buffer is created. When an acid is added, the CH3COO- ions (those mixed with the K+ ions) 'mop up' the H+ ions from the acid. When a base is added, the H+ ions from the CH3COOH 'mop up' the OH- ions so the pH is little affected.
NB. pH=-log10(H+)

The potassium is a spectator ion and can thus be deleted from the equation.

What is the chemical equation in the preparation of potassium acetate?
The preparation equation depends on the route by which this compound is prepared. A simple route is neutralization of acetic acid with potassium hydroxide: KOH + CH3COOH --> H2O + K+CH3COO-
How do I write Aqueous acetic acid is neutralized by aqueous potassium hydroxide in a balanced chemical equation?
HC2H3O2(aq) + KOH(aq) → KC2H3O2(aq) + H2O(l)...... I don't know about Net Ionic, but i think this is correct
What is the chemical equation for the reaction of acetic acid and potassium hydroxide?
Water, potassium and acetate ions. If you're adding equal amounts of both, the final solution will have a pH greater than 7.
