    1) HOBr stands for hypobromous acid. On reacting with water, products formed are OBr - and H3O+. Following reaction occurs during this process.

    HOBr + H2O ⇄ OBr - + H3O+

    2) HOBr is a weak acid and have a lower value of dissociation constant (Ka ~ 2.3 X 10^-9). Hence, large number of undissociated HOBr molecules are left in solution, when the reaction is completed/reaches equilibrium.
