Chemistry

Ionic bonds are formed when one of the two atoms that are reacting has excess electrons and transfer the electrons to the atom that is deficient in electrons. During the formation of the ionic bond, one of the reacting atoms will donate electrons and form positive ion.

Given the following values of pKa, determine which is the weakest base of the answers listed. Acid pKa HClO2 1.95 HClO 7.54 HCOO
professor190 [17]

Answer:

HClO 7.54

Explanation:

Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is a weakest acid because the pKa value of Hypochlorous acid is very high among the options given in the activity. pKa is a method which is used in order to identify the strength of an acid. The higher the value of pKa of a liquid, lower the strength of an acid while lower the value of pKa of chemical, higher the strength of an acid. In the options, HClO2  is a strong acid due to high lower pKa value.
