Identify the most acidic hydrogens in each of the following molecules. Give the structure of the enolate ion arising from deprot
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

See explanation below (Brainlist please)

Explanation:

First of all, we need to understand what is an acidic hydrogen.

An acidic hydrogen, is the atom of hydrogen which is more propense to undergo an acid base reaction, and form a stable ion or molecule in the process.

In other words, is the hydrogen that is more vulnerable to get substracted in an acid base reaction to form another compound.

Knowing this information, gives us an idea of how a molecule can be formed and which kind of compound is formed.

Now, in this question, we have 5 molecules. Each of them is either a ketone or aldehyde, so this mean that we have the carbonile group (C = O), which means that is easier to identify the acidic hydrogen. This is because the Carbonile group is an attractor group, so, it will attract the charges by inductive effect (in some cases by resonance), and the molecule is more stable.

This can be shown by drawing the enolate ion that is formed once the molecule undergo the acid base reaction. As it's an enolate form that we are looking for, then it means that the ketone or aldehyde is undergoing an electrofilic attack with a base. This base will substract the most acidic hydrogen to form a better and stable enolate. The acidic hydrogen and the enolate form can be seen in the attached picture.

a) In the case of acetaldehyde, the most acidic will be the hydrogen of carbon 2, because the hydrogen from the carbonile, once it's substracted, the charge of the carbon cannot be stabilized by resonance. Carbon 2 hydrogens, can do this job easily.

b) Propanal happens something similar to acetaldehyde, the terminal hydrogen cannot be substracted, and carbon 3, once the hydrogen is gone, the negative charge cannot be stabilized by resonance, so hydrogens of carbon 2 can do this.

c) in the case of acetone, is easier to look because we only have the C = O between two methyl group, so you can use either carbon 1 or 3 to do the job.

d) 4 heptanone the most acidic hydrogen would be carbon 3 or 5, because they are closer to the C=O and the ion can be stabilized by resonance.

e) Finally in ciclopentanone, the most acidic hydrogen would be carbon 2 or 5.

See picture for a better understanding.

Hope it helps.

Define an Arrhenius base and describe properties of bases. Use an example to explain how an Arrhenius base will behave in water.
frozen [14]

An Arrhenius base is a molecule that when dissolved in water will break down to yield an OH^-or hydroxide ion in solution.

<h3>What is Arrhenius base?</h3>

An Arrhenius base is a compound that increases the OH^- ion concentration in aqueous solution.

An Arrhenius base is a substance that, when dissolved in an aqueous solution, increases the concentration of hydroxide, or , OH^- ions in the solution.

Bases Properties

Arrhenius bases that are soluble in water can conduct electricity.

Bases often have a bitter taste and are found in foods less frequently than acids. Many bases, like soaps, are slippery to the touch.

Bases also change the colour of indicators. Red litmus turns blue in the presence of a base (see figure below), while phenolphthalein turns pink.

Some bases react with metals to produce hydrogen gas.

Acids (pH < 7.0) react with bases (pH > 7.0) to produce a salt and water. When equal moles of an acid and a base are combined, the acid is neutralized by the base. The resulting mixture will have a more neutral pH.

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions or protons. In other words, it increases the number of H^+ ions in the water. In contrast, an Arrhenius base dissociates in water to form hydroxide ions OH^-.

Example, sodium hydroxide, is added to an aqueous solution. NaOH dissociates into sodium, Na^+, and hydroxide, OH^- ions.
