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

Chemistry
1 answer:
givi [52]3 years ago
8 0
<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>

What are similarities and differences between ionization energy and electron affinity
Vladimir [108]
Ionization energy: the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom. Electron affinity: the energy change when a neutral atom attracts an electron to become a negative ion.

Enter the net ionic equation representing solid chromium (iii) hydroxide reacting with nitrous acid. express your answer as a ba
Colt1911 [192]

The net ionic equation of chromium (iii) hydroxide reacting with nitrous acid:

Cr(OH)₃ (s) + 3H⁺ (aq) ⇒ Cr³⁺ (aq) + 3H₂O (l)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The electrolyte in the solution produces ions.

The equation of a chemical reaction can be expressed in the equation of the ions

For strong electrolytes (the ionization rate = 1) is written in the form of separate ions, while the weak electrolyte (degree of ionization <1) is still written as an un-ionized molecule

In the ion equation, there is a spectator ion that is the ion which does not change (does not react) because it is present before and after the reaction

When these ions are removed, the ionic equation is called the net ionic equation

For gases and solids including water (H₂O) can be written as an ionized molecule

So only the dissolved compound is ionized ((expressed in symbol aq)

From the problem, it is stated that chromium (iii) hydroxide reacting with nitrous acid.

Reactions that occur:

Cr(OH)₃ (s) + 3HNO₂ (aq) ⇒ Cr(NO₂)₃ (aq) + 3H₂O (l)

Cr (OH)₃ solid form that does not decompose in the form of ions, as well as water (H₂O)

So the ionic equation becomes:

Cr(OH)₃ (s) + 3H⁺ (aq) + 3NO₂⁻ (aq) ⇒ Cr³⁺ (aq) + 3NO₂⁻ (aq) + 3H₂O (l)

There is an ion spectator that is 3NO₂⁻, so that if it is removed a net ionic equation will be formed:

Cr(OH)₃ (s) + 3H⁺ (aq) ⇒ Cr³⁺ (aq) + 3H₂O (l)
