The compound (A) is 2-bromo-pentane. See attached picture for the chemical diagram.

Explanation:

2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with bromine (Br₂) under UV light to form 2,2-dibromopentane and HBr. Also 2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with NaSH to from pentane-2-thiol, which have an asimetric carbon, and NaBr.

You may find the chemical reactions and diagrams of the compounds in the attached picture.

If a weak acid is 25% deprotonated at ph 4, what is the pka?if a weak acid is 25% deprotonated at ph 4, what is the pka?
Oksanka [162]
4.48
pH=pKa+log([A-/HA])

25% deprotonated tells us that A- is .25 and that the rest (75% is protonated) thats .75.

4 = pKa + log\frac{.25}{.75}
4 - log\frac{.25}{.75} = pKa
4.48=pKa
