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

Chemistry

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>

OLga [1]
Hg(No3)2  +NaSO4   --->2NaNO3  +  HgSO4(s)
calculate  the moles  of   each  reactant
moles=mass/molar  mass

moles of  Hg(NO3)2=  51.429g/  324.6  g/mol(molar  mass  of  Hg(NO3)2)=0.158  moles

moles Na2SO4  16.642g/142g/mol=  0.117  moles  of  Na2SO4

Na2SO4  is  the  limiting  reagent in  the   equation   and  by  use  mole  ratio  Na2So4  to  HgSO4  is  1:1   therefore  the  moles  of  HgSO4  =0.117  moles

mass  of  HgSO4=moles  x  molar   mass  of  HgSo4=  0.117 g x  303.6g/mol=  35.5212  grams

Katena32 [7]
C7H16, where C=12.01, and H=1.01, so the weight of the molecule would be 7(12.01)+16(1.01), or 100.23. The percentage of carbon would be found by ((7*12.01)/100.23)*100=83.88% Carbon
((16*1.01)/100.23)*100=16.12% Hydrogen

Henry Moseley organized the periodic table by A. atomic weight. B. atomic number. C. electronegativity. D. overall charge of ato
Leni [432]
B - Atomic number. Dmitri Mendeleev organised the table according to atomic weight, however this caused problems with elements such as iodine and tellurium, Iodine has a higher mass, but a lower atomic number. And to make iodine in the same group as similar elements (halogens), Mendeleev had to break his own rules and put it before tellurium in the table. Moseley fixed this problem by ordering the elements according to atomic (proton) number.
