Answer:

(a) > (d) > (c) > (b)

Explanation:

Acidic character is based upon inductive effect of the functional group that are attached to parent chain.

1. Nitro is a -I group which makes phenol acidic due to increased resonance,  2. bromine is a -I group but it is weaker than nitro group

3. phenol is more acidic than cyclohexanol due to resonance stabilization of resonance and among halogen F>Cl>Br>I is the order of acidity

4. cyclohexanol will be weakest as  it is not associated with any -I groups here.

so the order of acidity will be

(a). 4-nitropheno >  (d). 4-bromophenol > (c). 2,6-difluorocyclohexanol  >               (b). cyclohexanol

Organize the following species in terms
ser-zykov [4K]

Explanation:

  1. F Cl Br
  • ionization energy decreases we move down the group
  • so Br<Cl<F

2. Na K Li

  • ionization energy decreases we move down the group
  • so K<Na<Li

3. C N O F

  • ionization energy increases as we move across the peroid
  • so C<N<O<F

ad-work [718]

Answer:

1.67mol/L

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mole of solute (K2CO3) = 5.51 moles

Volume of solution = 3.30 L

Molarity =?

Molarity is simply the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. It can be expressed mathematically as:

Molarity = mole of solute /Volume of solution

Molarity = 5.51 mol/3.30 L

Molarity = 1.67mol/L

Therefore, the molarity of K2CO3 is 1.67mol/L
