Calculate the equilibrium constant (Keq) for the reaction of equimolar amounts of
acetophenone and sodium hydroxide to generate the enolate. The pKa values of
acetophenone and water are 19.0 and 15.7, respectively.

This is the reaction

I found the equation:
Keq=10^(pKaconjugate acid - pKaacid)

10^(19.0-15.7)
Keq=1995.26?
