Among formic acid (HCOOH ) and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), formic acid is the weak acid. Acidic strength of any acid is the tendency of that acid to loose proton. Among these two acids formic acid has a pKa value of 3.74 greater than that of sulfuric acid i.e. -10. Remember! Greater the pKa value of acid weaker is that acid and vice versa. Below I have drawn the Ionization of both acids to corresponding conjugate bases and protons. The structures below with charges are drawn in order to explain the reason for strength. As it is seen in charged structure of formic acid, there is one positive charge on carbon next to oxygen carrying proton. The electron density is shifted toward carbon as it is electron deficient and demands more electron hence, attracting electron density from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond more polar. While, in case of sulfuric acid it is depicted that Sulfur attached to oxygen containing proton has 2+ charge, means more electron deficient as compared to carbon of formic acid, hence, more electron demanding and strongly attracting electrons from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond very polar and highly ionizable.
Answer:
The temperature to the nearest 0.5°C is 98.5°C
Answer:
A velocity-time graph shows how velocity changes over time. The sprinter's velocity increases for the first 4 seconds of the race, it remains constant for the next 3 seconds, and it decreases during the last 3 seconds after she crosses the finish line.
A flood, if it hits the environment of the natural rubbers, would destroy how the rubber is being produced. to have a large amount of limitation, the flood would destroy a large percentage of rubber trees. This natural rubber is needed to make synthetic polymers. Without the rubber (because of damages to it's ecosystem through the flood), there would be a limited supply, and a substancial drop on synthetic polymers.
hope this helps
Answer:
Ca(NO3)2 has the highest boiling point ( option A)
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
A. 1.25 M Ca(NO3)2
B. 1.25 M KNO3
C. 1.25 M CH3OH
D. 2.50 M C6H12O6
Step 2: Calculate highest boiling point
The boiling point depends on the van't Hoff factor
This shows the particles produced when the substance is dissolved. For non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van' t Hoff factor is 1.
Ca(NO3)2 → Ca^2+ + 2NO3- → Van't Hoff factor = 3
KNO3 → K+ + NO3- → Van't Hoff factor = 2
CH3OH is a non-elektrolyte → Van't Hoff factor = 1
C6H12O6 is a non-elektrolyte → Van't Hoff factor = 1
Ca(NO3)2 has the highest boiling point
