Explain why the C―Ha bond is much more acidic than the C―Hb bond in pentan-2-one. Select the single best answer. 253 Ha is less

acidic than Hb because loss of Hb forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base. Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base. Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Hb forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base. Ha is less acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base.

Answer:

Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base.

Explanation:

The carbon atom that is next to the carbonyl group in pentan-2-one is known as the alpha carbon atom, this carbon atom bears the Ha, the alpha hydrogen atoms.

Ha is more acidic than Hb because, loss of Ha leads to the formation of a resonance stabilized enolate ion. This resonance stabilization of the ion formed makes loss of Ha an easier process than loss of Hb, hence the answer above.

Masja [62]
At the point when a response achieves a condition of concoction balance under a specific arrangement of conditions, no further changes in the groupings of reactants and items happen. On the off chance that a change is made in the conditions under which the framework is at harmony, substance change will happen so as to build up another balance. The components that can impact harmony are an adjustment in focus, change in weight (or volume), and change in temperature.

Air containing 20.0 mol% water vapor at an initial pressure of 1 atm absolute is cooled in a 1- liter sealed vessel from 200°C t
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

This solution is quite lengthy

Total system = nRT

n was solved to be 0.02575

nH20 = 0.2x0.02575

= 0.00515

Nair = 0.0206

PH20 = 0.19999

Pair = 1-0.19999

= 0.80001

At 15⁰c

Pair = 0.4786atm

I used antoine's equation to get pressure

The pressure = 0.50

2. Moles of water vapor = 0.0007084

Moles of condensed water = 0.0044416

Grams of condensed water = 0.07994

Please refer to attachment. All solution is in there.
