For each pair, select the stronger acid and explain why. (a) HClO_4, HBrO_4. (b) HClO_4, HClO_3F. (c) H_2S, H_2O. The formula for hypochlorous acid is: a) HClO_4 b) HClO_3 c) HCl d) HClO_2 e) HClO Is HClO_4 a strong or weak acid? The strength of the ...
The shifts in stretching vibrations of the acidic proton participating in the formation of a weak hydrogen bond with a molecule of a base in aprotic media can be used for the quantitative determination of the strength of the acid [i] and the base [2]. In the present communication, it is...
Order each of the following pairs by acid strength, giving the weaker acid first Explain your answer. a) HNO3, HNO2 b) H2S, H2 Te Name the compounds from strongest to weakest acid, and please explain why: HBr, HF, HCl, HI. Classify the following as a ...
Give an example of a conjugate pair in which neither species is either a strong acid or base. (Identify the acid and the base.) Define conjugate acid What role do conjugate acid-base pairs play ? What is the Bronsted - Lowry concept of acids and bases? Why does a strong acid have a...
