Predict the direction of the following equilibrium and the approximate value of Keq.

NaF + HCl NaCl + HF (pKa : HCl ≈ -6, HF = 3.22)

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

The acid on the left is HCl (pKa ≈ -6) and the acid on the right is HF (pKa 3.22). HF is the much weaker acid, so the equilibrium lies far to the right. Keq ≈ 10^(3.22-(-6)) = 10⁹·²²·
