For each molecule below, draw the conjugate acid or conjugate base or both if the molecule hasboth a conjugate acid and a conjugate base (e.g., water).
Complete the equation for the reaction between each Lewis acid-base pair. In each equation, label which starting material is the Lewis acid and which is the Lewis base; use curved arrows to show the flow of electrons in each reaction. In doing this problem, it is essential that you show valence electrons for all atoms participating in each reaction. (a) (b) (c) (d)
For the previous four questions, label each molecule that appears in the question or your answer asstrong acid, strong base, weak acid, or weak base.
Summarize the relationship between pKa and base strength by completing the followingsentences: a. For a given base, the higher the pKa of its conjugate acid, the stronger or weaker the base. b. For a given base, the lower the pKa of its conjugate acid, the stronger or weaker the base.
As we shall see in Chapter 19, hydrogens on a carbon adjacent to a carbonyl group are far more acidic than those not adjacent to a carbonyl group. The anion derived from acetone, for example, is more stable than is the anion derived from ethane. Account for the greater stability of the anion from acetone.
Consider the following bases: a. For each base above, circle the atom/atoms with the highest PE (will release the most P.E.when a lone pair on this atom combines with an H+ ) b. Rank the bases 1 (highest P.E./strongest base) to 7 (lowest PE/weakest base), and explainyour reasoning.
8 . Please answer this which is more acidic
Which of the following compounds is the stronger base? Explain. or NH3 is a v base than NCI3. This is due to the difference in the electron withdrawing strength of Cl compared with H. v is more electronegative than and will v more electron density v the nitrogen than Thus, the nitrogen atom in NCI3 has a v positive charge than it does in NH3. The v positive charge means that is v difficult to add H* to NCI3 than it is to add H* to NH3. Is the compound Sb(OH)5 likely to be acidic, basic, or neutral in water? Justify your answer. Phosphorus and arsenic form acids of the form X(OH)n, so one would predict that antimony would be similar as it is in the same family. Based in the number of OH groups present, it should be However, antimony hydroxides are not stable and form oxides which are known to be amphoteric. Thus, Sb(OH)6 is in fact more likely to be
Given the choices of Resonance, inductive, electronegativity, and s-character which choice best explains why the first compound is more acidic than the second one? I choose resonance factor because of the conjugate base but would s-character(hybridization ) be more important? The first compound is given to be more acidic
