Compare the acidity of 2-naphthol and ethanol. which is more acidic? why

Chemistry
1 answer:
givi [52]3 years ago

<span>The pH of ethanol is 7.33, while the pH of 2-naphthol is 8.5. Hence as both substances have a pH greater than 7, they are classified as basic substances rather than acidic. However, as ethanol has a lower pH than 2-naphthol it is more acidic than 2-naphthol, and this is due to ethanol dissociating in solution to form a lower number of hydrogen ions than 2-naphthol.</span>

According to VSEPR theory , in which fashion will the bonds and lone pairs of electrons be arranged about the central atom in th
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal, trigonal bipyramidal.

Explanation:

The VSPER theory states that the bonds of sharing electrons and the lone pairs of electrons will repulse as much as possible. So, by the repulsion, the molecule will have some shape.

In the ion PO₄³⁻, the central atom P has 5 electrons in its valence shell, so it needs 3 electrons to be stable. Oxygen has 6 electrons at the valence shell and needs 2 to be stable. 3 oxygens share 1 pair of electrons with P, and the two lone pair remaining in P is shared with the other O, then the central atom makes 4 bonds and has no lone pairs, the shape is tetrahedral.

In the ion H₃O⁺, the central atom O has 6 electrons in its valence shell and needs 2 electrons to be stable. The hydrogen has 1 electron, and need 1 more to be stable. The hydrogens share 1 pair of electrons with the oxygen, then it remains 3 electrons at the central atom, and the VSPER theory states that the shape will be a trigonal pyramidal.

In the AsF₅, the central atom As has 5 valence electrons, and F has 1 electron in its valence shell, so each F shares one pair of electrons with As, and there are no lone pairs in the central atom. For 5 bonds without lone pairs, the shape is trigonal bipyramidal.

How many total electrons can be contained in the 4d sublevel? <br> 2<br> 6<br> 10<br> 14
qaws [65]
<span>The s sublevel has just one orbital, so can contain 2 electrons max. The p sublevel has 3 orbitals, so can contain 6 electrons max. The d sublevel has 5 orbitals, so can contain 10 electrons max. And the 4 sublevel has 7 orbitals, so can contain 14 electrons max.
So, having this in mind, 10 electrons in total can be contained in the 4d sublevel.

Viết các đồng phân cấu tạo mạch hở của C4H6O2 cùng nhóm chức axit
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

+ axit

CH2=CH-CH2-COOH,

CH3-CH=CH-COOH (tính cả đồng phân hình học)

CH2=C(CH3)-COOH.

+ este

HCOOCH=CH-CH3 (tính cả đồng phân hình học)

HCOO-CH2-CH=CH2,

HCOOC(CH3)=CH2.

CH3COOCH=CH2

CH2=CH-COOCH3
