Benzoic acid (C6H5COOH) and aniline (C6H5NH2) are both derivatives of benzene. Benzoic acid is an acid with Ka = 6.3 × 10–5 and aniline is a base with Ka = 4.3 × 10–10.

(a) What are the conjugate base of benzoic acid and the conjugate acid of aniline? (b) Anilinium chloride (C6H5NH3Cl) is a strong electrolyte that dissociates into anilinium ions (C6H5NH3+) and chloride ions. Which will be more acidic, a 0.10 M solution of benzoic acid or a 0.10 M solution of anilinium chloride? (c) What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the following equilibrium?

C6H5COOH(aq) + C6H5NH2(aq) C6H5COO-(aq) + C6H5NH3+(aq)
