Dissociation consant for: HA rightharpoons H+ + A- Can be given as: Ks = ([H+][A-]/[HA]) Therefore, we can say that dissociation constant is a measure of its ability to furnish protons in the solution.

Q. Assertion : Relative strength of acids can be known by knowing the value of dissociation constant.
Reason : It gives the value of $H^{+}$ dissolved in solution.

If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion

If Assertion is true but Reason is false

If Assertion is false but Reason is true

Dissociation consant for :

$H A ⇋ H^{+} + A^{-}$

Can be given as :

$K_{s} = \frac{[ H ^{+} ] [ A ^{-} ]}{[ H A ]}$

Therefore, we can say that dissociation constant is a measure of its ability to furnish protons in the solution.
