    Chemical reaction: ClO⁻ + H₂O → HClO + OH⁻.

    ClO⁻ is base in this chemical reaction and water is acid. According Brønsted-Lowry acid-base theory base is compound that attracts protons (H⁺) and acid (in this chemical reaction water) gives protons.

    Ke = [OH⁻] · [HClO] / [ClO⁻].

    [OH⁻] - equilibrium concentration.
