Answer:
HOAc is stronger acid than HClO
ClO⁻ is stronger conjugate base than OAc⁻
Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰
Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷
Explanation:
Assume 0.10M HOAc => H⁺ + OAc⁻ with Ka = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵
=> [H⁺] = √Ka·[Acid] =√(1.8 x 10⁻⁵)(0.10) M = 1.3 x 10⁻³M H⁺
Assume 0.10M HClO => H⁺ + ClO⁻ with Ka = 3 x 10⁻⁸
=> [H⁺] = √(3 x 10⁻⁸)(0.10)M = 5.47 x 10⁻⁵M H⁺
HOAc delivers more H⁺ than HClO and is more acidic.
Kb = Kw/Ka, Kw = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴
Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰
Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷
The process where fossil fuels, forests, or other carbon-containing substances are burned, addin more carbon dioxide to the air is the combustion.
Some examples of combustion are:
Fossil fuel:
Carbon + O2
C + O2 -> CO2
Forests (wood)
Wood = cellulose = [C6H10O5]n
[C6H10O5]n + 6nO2 = 6n CO2 + 5n H2O
So, in general the combustion of organic matter produces CO2 and water.
They increase across each period, decrease down a group. As you go across a period the number of protons and increases. The positive nucleus then has a stronger attractive force on the electrons so it takes a larger amount of energy to remove an electron. As you go down a group the atoms are larger so the attractive force is weaker and it takes less energy to remove an electron.
