Write a mechanism (using curved-arrow notation) for the deprotonation of tannins in base. Use Ar-OH as a generic form of a tanni

n and use sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) as the base. Balance the chemical equation. Comment on the aqueous solubilities of each species (assume that the tannin is insoluble in water initially)

Answer:

After deprotonation of tannin, tannin (Ar-OH) is converted to Ar-O^{-}Na^{+} salt which is soluble in water and CO_{3}^{2-} is converted to HCO_{3}^{-}Na^{+} which is also soluble in water

Explanation:

  • Sodium carbonate is a strong electrolyte which produces carbonate anion upon dissociation.
  • Carbonate ion is a strong conjugate base of weak acid HCO_{3}^{-}
  • After deprotonation of tannin, tannin (Ar-OH) is converted to Ar-O^{-}Na^{+} salt which is soluble in water and CO_{3}^{2-} is converted to HCO_{3}^{-}Na^{+} which is also soluble in water
  • Balanced equation: Ar-OH+Na_{2}CO_{3}\rightarrow Ar-O^{-}Na^{+}+Na^{+}HCO_{3}^{-}
  • Mechanism has been shown below.

Which of these has the most covalent character? <br> NaF Caf2 Bef2 CsF SrF2
Ksenya-84 [330]

Thus BeF2 is of most covalent character.

Anyways, covalent/ionic character is a bit tricky to figure out; we measure the difference in electronegativity of two elements bonding together and we use the following rule of thumb: if the charge is 0 (or a little more), the bond is non-polar covalent; if the charge is > 0 but < 2.0 (some references say 1.7), the bond is polar covalent; if the charge is > 2.0 then the bond is ionic. Covalent character refers to smaller electronegativity difference while ionic character refers to greater electronegativity difference.


Now, notice all of our bonds are with F, fluorine, which has the highest electronegativity of 3.98. This means that to determine character we need to consider the electronegativities of the other elements -- whichever has the greatest electronegativity has the least difference and most covalent character.
Na, sodium, has electronegativity of 0.93, so our difference is ~3 -- meaning our bond is ionic. Ca, calcium, has 1.00, leaving our difference to again be ~3 and therefore the bond is ionic. Be, beryllium, has 1.57 yielding a difference of ~2.5, meaning we're still dealing with ionic bond. Cs, cesium, has 0.79, meaning our difference is again ~3 and therefore again our compound is of ionic bond. Lastly, we have Sr, strontium, with an electronegativity of 0.95 and therefore again a difference of roughly 3 and an ionic bond. <span>

Can u plz give an answer to me thank you​

The puppies have different colored noses because of reccesive and dominant genotypes.

Genotypes are represented by letters, capital being dominant and lowercase being recessive.

For example, lets say t = pink nose and T = black nose.

If the parents have black noses, then they will pass on T genotypes.

But, they also have hidden pink nose genotypes.

These hidden genotypes are passed on to the puppies, one of the puppies gets more black nose genotypes.

If a puppy gets tt, they will have a pink nose.

If they get TT, they will have a black nose

If they get Tt, they will also have a black nose.

Because the black nose is dominant, its more likley for the puppies to end up with a black nose.
