Question
Write an equation for the proton-transfer reaction between a phosphate ion (PO43–)
and water, and determine in which direction the equilibrium is favored? By knowing the
relative acid and base strengths of the species involved in the reaction, you will be able
to predict the direction in which the equilibrium is favored.
