Why is a phenol more acidic than a regular alcohol? Group of answer choices

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aleks [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a.Phenols have the ability to spread out the negative charge that forms.

Explanation:

This happens because of  the aromatic ring the phenols have. When loosing the proton, the anion formed have different resonance isomers due to the double bonds in the aromatic ring. This resonance makes the anion more stable and prevents the reaction going backwards.

On the other hand, regular alcohol doesn't have resonace and the reaction of loosing the proton goes leftward and righward: is in equilibrium.

That equilibrium decreases the acidity of the alcohol.

1. Which of the following indicates the number of protons?
Leokris [45]

Answer:

a)Atomic number

Explanation:

Element symbol signifies the element. For eg, Na is sodium. Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons of an atom of an element. Atomic mass is the molar mass of the given element. Finally, atomic number is unique to each element because it signifies the number of protons of that element. EACH ELEMENT has their UNIQUE number of protons. For eg, atomic number of hydrogen is 1 because it has 1 proton, NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS ATOMIC NUMBER 1 because NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS 1 proton.

What volume of water has the same mass as 9.0m3 of ethyl alcohol?
Triss [41]
This question requires the knowledge of density. 

The density of ethyl alcohol = 789 kg m⁻³
The density of water = 1000 kg m⁻³

Density = Mass / Volume 

By applying ethyl alcohol,
    789 kg m⁻³ = Mass / 0.9 m³
         Mass     = 710.1 kg
hence the mass of 0.9 m³ ethyl alcohol is 710.1 kg.

Then by applying water,
     1000 kg m⁻³ = 710.1 kg / Volume
      Volume        = 0.7101 m³
                          = 0.7 m³
hence the equal water volume is 0.7 m³

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

boiling point decreases in denver

Explanation:

in higher places

theres less atmospheric pressure

it takes less energy to bring water to the boiling point.

Less energy means less heat

which means water will boil at a lower temperature
