Chemistry

SashulF [63]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<em>That's </em><em>because</em><em> </em><em>in </em><em>water</em><em> </em><em>NaF </em><em>will </em><em>dissolve</em><em> </em><em>to </em><em>produce </em><em>Na</em><em>+</em><em>,</em><em>the </em><em>conjugate </em><em>base </em><em>of </em><em>a </em><em>strong</em><em> </em><em>acid </em><em>which</em><em> </em><em>will </em><em>not </em><em>react </em><em>with </em><em>water.</em><em>h</em><em>o</em><em>w</em><em>e</em><em>v</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em> </em><em>F- </em><em>will </em><em>behave </em><em>like </em><em>a </em><em>bronsted </em><em>base,</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>accept</em><em> </em><em>a </em><em>proton </em><em>from </em><em>water.</em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>i</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>called </em><em>hydrolysis</em><em> </em><em>reaction,</em><em> because</em><em> </em><em>a </em><em>molecule</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>water </em><em>is </em><em>broken </em><em>up.</em>

<em>a </em><em>conjugate</em><em> base</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>what </em><em>I </em><em>leftover </em><em>after </em><em>an </em><em>acid </em><em>loses </em><em>a </em><em>hydrogen</em><em> </em><em>ion.</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope</em><em> this</em><em> helps</em>
