The hydrolysis reaction is a reversible reaction.The process of hydrolysis is a reverse reaction of neutralization.
hydrolysis constant (𝐾ℎ):The equilibrium constant for the hydrolysis reaction multiplied by concentration of water is known as hydrolysis constant. it is represented by Kh.
degree of hydrolysis (h): The fraction of the total salt which is hydrolysed it equilibrium is called degree of hydrolysis. It is denoted by “h”.
