Which of the following is a strong acid? A) HCIO2 B) HF C) HBO3 D) H2SO3 E) H2SO4
1 answer:
Answer:
Sulfuric acid
Explanation:
Acid strength (in water) is measured as the equilibria of dissociation of the acid into hydronium and its conjugated base. The greater the Ka value, greater the acid strength.
This equilibrium constant is denominated Ka where [H+] stands for the molar concentration of hydronium and [HA] stands for the molar concentration of the non-dissociated acid.
The Ka values for these acids are: for HClO2;
for HF;
for HBO3;
for H2SO3 and
for H2SO4
So, as the greatest Ka is from H2SO4 it is the strongest acid in this list.

2C₆H₆(l)+15O₂(g)⇒ 12CO₂(g)+6H₂O(l) +6542 kJ
MW C₆H₆ : 78.11 g/mol
mol C₆H₆ :
Heat released for 2 mol C₆H₆ =6542 kJ, so for 1 mol
