Rank the compounds in each of the following groups in order of increasing acidity or basicity, as indicated, and explain the order you assign. (a) acidity: HCI, HBr, HI. (b)basicity: H2O, OH-, H-, CI-. (c) basicity: Mg(OH)2, Si(OH)4, ClO3(OH) (Hint: Formula could also be written as HCIO4). (d) acidity: HF, H2O, NH3, CH4
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.
Gastric juice, the digestive ?uid produced in the stomach, contains hydrochloric acid, HCl, Milk of Magnesia, a suspension of solid Mg(OH)2 in an aqueous medium, is sometimes used to neutralize-excess stomach acid. Write a complete balanced equation for the neutralization reaction, and identify the conjugate acid—base pairs.
Several acids and their respective equilibrium constants are: Which is the strongest acid? Which is the weakest acid? Which acid has the weakest conjugate base? Which acid has the strongest conjugate base?
Hypofluorous acid, HOF, is known, but fluorous acid, HOFO, is not. Which acid would you expect to be stronger?
Use Table 13-2 to order the following from the strongest to the weakest acid. HClO2,H2O,NH4+,HClO4
Place the species in each of the following groups in order of increasing acid strength. a. H2O, H2S, H2Se (bond energies: HO, 467 kJ/mol; HS, 363 kJ/mol; HSe, 276 kJ/mol) b. CH3CO2H, FCH2CO2H, F2CHCO2H, F3CCO2H c. NH4+, HONH3+ d. NH4+, PH4+ (bond energies: NH, 391 kJ/mol; PH, 322 kJ/mol) Give reasons for the orders you chose.
Following is a structural formula for imidazole, a building block of the essential amino acid histidine (Chapter 27). It is also a building block of histamine, a compound all too familiar to people with allergies and takers of antihistamines. When imidazole is dissolved in water, proton transfer to it gives a cation. Is this cation better represented by structure A or B? Explain.
You are asked to calculate the H+ concentration in a solution of NaOH(aq). Because sodium hydroxide is a base, can we say there is no H+. since having H+ would imply that the solution is acidic?
The sec-butyl cation can react as both a Brnsted-Lowry acid (a proton donor) and a Lewis acid (an electron pair acceptor) in the presence of a watersulfuric acid mixture. In each case, however, the product is different. The two reactions are as follows: (a) In which reaction(s) does this cation react as a Lewis acid? In which reaction(s) does it react as a Brnsted-Lowry acid? (b) Write Lewis structures for reactants and products and show by the use of curved arrows how each reaction occurs.
