Answer:
A. Methanol
B. 2-chloropropan-1-ol
C. 2,2-dichloroethanol
D. 2,2-difluoropropan-1-ol
Explanation:
Primary alcohols are stronger acids than secondary alcohols which are stronger than tertiary alcohols.
This trend is so because of the stability of the alkoxide ion formed(stabilising the base, increases the acidity). A more stabilised alkoxide ion is a weaker conjugate base (dissociation of an acid in water).
By electronic factors, When there are alkyl groups donating electrons, the density of electrons on th O- will increase a d thereby make it less stable.
By stearic factors, More alkyl group bonded to the -OH would mean the bulkier the alkoxide ion which would be harder to stabilise.
Down the group of the periodic table, basicity (metallic character) decreases as we go from F– to Cl– to Br– to I– because that negative charge is being spread out over a larger volume that is electronegativity decreases down the group.
Electronegative atoms give rise to inductive effect and a decrease in indutive effects leads to a decrease in acidity. Therefore an Increasing distance from the -OH group lsads to a decrease in acidity.
From above,
A. Methanol
B. 2-chloropropan-1-ol
C. 2,2-dichloroethanol
D. 2,2-difluoropropan-1-ol
Nitrous acid<span> dissociates as follows:
</span>
HNO₂(s) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq)
According to the equation, an acid constant has the following form:
Ka = [H⁺] × [NO₂⁻ ] / [HNO₂]
From pH, we can calculate the concentration of H⁺ and NO₂⁻:
[H⁺] = 10^-pH = 10^-2.63 = 0.00234 M = [NO₂⁻]
Now, the acid constant can be calculated:
Ka = 0.00234 x 0.00234 / 0.015 = 3.66 x 10⁻⁴
And finally,
pKa = -log Ka = 3.44
D) 710 g
Step by Step:
Multiply 2.5 L by 2.0 M to solve for moles
2 mol/L • 2.5 L= 5 mol
Find formula weight of sodium sulfate
Na2SO4-142.04 g/mol
Na- 2(22.99)=45.98
S-32.06
O-4(16)=64
Multiply miles by formula weight
5 mole • 142.04 g/mol=710.2 g
Answer: condenstation.
Justification:
The polymerization by condensation is a well know chemical reaction in which two monomers ("small" molecules), each with (at least) two functional groups, combine and relase water as by-product. Actually, even if the by-product released is not water, yet the reaction is called condenstation, since the mechanism is basically the same.
An example of such reaction is the manufacturing of nylon 6,6, which is produced from adipic acid and 1,6-diamine hexane:
HOOC - [CH₂]₄ - COOH + nH₂N - [CH₂]₆ - NH₂ → - nylon - + nH₂O
I omitted the formula of nylon because it is large, and that is not the core of the question but the fact the kind of reaction: two molecules combine to form is a larger molecule, and water is released
