When 3 10 K Backward reaction is more favourable Thus, in solution, 2 4 HPO and 3 HCO are dominant. Now, 2 4 HPO is conjugate base of 2 4 H POand 3 HCO is conjugate acid of 2 3 CO . Thus, Base involved in this reaction are 2 3 CO and 2 4 HPO Since, reaction is favoured in backward direction it is clear 2 3 CO is stronger base than 2 4 HPO as stronger acid/base reacts to drive reaction towards weaker conjugate counterpart.
