WHY ACETIC ACID IS STRONGER IN STRENGHT THAN CHLOROACETIC ACID ...?

Chemistry

aleksandr82 [10.1K]3 years ago

For this question, I think it is the other way around. It is true that chloroacetic acid is stronger in strength than acetic acid. Acid strength is measured as the equilibrium constant of the reaction <span>HA -----> H+ + A- 

</span><span> In acetic acid, the anion produced by dissociation is CH3-COO-; in chloroacetic acid it is CH2Cl-COO-. Comparing the two, in the first one the negative charge is taken up mostly by the two oxygen atoms. In the second there is also an electronegative chlorine atom nearby to draw more charge towards itself. Therefore, the charge is less concentrated in the chloroacetate ion than it is in the acetate ion, and, accordingly, chloroacetic acid is stronger than acetic acid. </span>

What happens during a chemical reaction?
frozen [14]

Answer: The reactants’ bonds break, and bonds of the products form.

Explanation:

When a chemical reaction takes place, the bonds are broken and new bonds are formed to make new molecules. Like when 2 water molecules are broken down to form hydrogen and oxygen.

What exactly are the physical properties of a candle that has been blown out?
pogonyaev
Let's think, if you have a candle ( that is not blown out ) the physical properties are the candles mass and hence ( hence of the candle is the stiffness of the candle), weight, length, density, surface friction ( force resisting the relative motion of solid surface), and the energy content. You then, need to go to bed, so, therefore, you want to blow the candle out. Once you blow the candle out, the candle is evidently going to have at least a couple of different physical properties, than before it was blown out. The physical properties are a different color, the length of the candle, the texture, you could also apply the mass of the candleholder, and then, the mass of the candleholder and the candle, last but not least, the mass of just the candle. Once you observe the candle, you should be able to plug in those observations into the physical properties. As to, because you asked' what are the physical properties of a candle that has been blown out... We are going to assume that we did observe the candle, and the length of the candle in cm, after being blown out is 30cm. (12 inches; customary). Next, that the color of the candle is the same (let us say the original color is taffy pink).  We can then say that the texture of the candle is waxy and the top and smooth as you get to the bottom ( the texture depends on how long the candle was burning, but we are saying that we lit the candle, and then immediately blew the flame out ) . We now have the mass of the candleholder, which will scientificity stay the same. Now, for the mass of the candleholder and the candle, that all depends of how long you let it burn ( remember, we are saying we lit the wick and then immediately  blew the fame out ). So, the candle really didn't change is mass, so, therefore, wouldn't affect the mass of the candleholder including the candle. That also goes to the mass of the candle.
