Reaction between weak acid and weak base?

When a weak acid reacts with a weak base, the equivalence point solution will be basic if the base is stronger and acidic if the acid is stronger; if both are of equal strength, then the equivalence pH will be neutral.

Hope the answer is helpful

Answer:

A weak acid combines with a weak base to generate a neutral salt and water in a weak acid-weak base neutralization process. This sort of reaction occurs when acetic acid reacts with ammonium hydroxide to generate ammonium acetate and water.

Explanation:

  • When weak acids are dissolved in water, they do not entirely break down into their constituent ions. When the weak acid is dissolved in water, an equilibrium between the concentration of the weak acid and its constituent ions is established.
  • A weak base is one that ionizes partially in water and produces a tiny number of hydroxide ions.
  • When a weak acid combines with a weak base, the equivalence point solution will be basic if the base is stronger, acidic if the acid is stronger, and neutral if both are of equal strength.
