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

Chemistry
1 answer:
aleksandr82 [10.1K]3 years ago
6 0
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>

How do you view failure? Is failure the end, or is failure an important lesson and motivator?
Katyanochek1 [597]

If the temperature of a liquid-vapor system at equilibrium increases, the new equilibrium condition will
nikdorinn [45]
If the temperature of a liquid-vapor system at equilibrium increases, it will shift towards the vapor phase, assuming that the pressure remains equal. The concentration of vapor will also increase relative to the concentration of liquid in the system. Thus, the new equilibrium condition will have more vapor than liquid.

How many mL of a 1.48 M calcium hydroxide solution are needed to neutralize 36.0 mL of a 1.63 M hydrochloric acid solution
Lelechka [254]

The volume (in mL) of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)₂ needed for the reaction is 19.8 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ —> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, HCl (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>
  • Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 1.48 M
  • Volume of acid, HCl (Va) = 36 mL
  • Molarity of acid, HCl (Ma) = 1.63 M
  • Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(1.63 × 36) / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

58.68 / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

Cross multiply

2 × 1.48 × Vb = 58.68

2.96 × Vb = 58.68

Divide both side by 2.96

Vb = 58.68 / 2.96

Vb = 19.8 mL
