What is the chemical equation for the ionization of benzoic acid? Chemistry Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium Stoichiometry 1 Answer anor277 Aug 11, 2016 #C_6H_5CO_2H(aq) + H_2O(l) rightleftharpoons C_6H_5CO_2^(-) + H_3O^+# Explanation: See this site. A #pK_a=4.202# is reported. For acetic acid, #H_3C-CO_2H#, #pK_a=4.76#. Can you explain why benzoic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid?
