The strength of an acid is affected by the polarity of the bond connected to the acidic hydrogen. The more highly polarized this

bond, the more easily the hydrogen is ionized. Electronegative atoms or groups of atoms present in the structure of an acid can act to withdraw electrons and produce additional polarization. Two common groups of acids to which this principle can be applied are oxoacids and carboxylic acids. In the latter group, the length of the hydrocarbon chain in a carboxylic acid has very little effect on acid strength Longer chains may slightly diminish acidity. Bases act as hydrogen ion acceptors because of the unshared electron pass in their structure. Any group present in a base that withdraws electrons makes these electron pairs less available to accept a hydrogen ion. In contrast, any group that can act as an electron donating group such as hydrocarbon groups (usually represented as II) can increase the base strength. Thus, the addition of electronegative atoms or groups of atoms to the structure of a base decreases the base strength and electron donating groups increase base strength. Many common weak bases are derivatives of ammonia, in which H atom(s) of NH_2 are replaced with other groups.
Arrange the following oxoacids in order of decreasing acid strength. Rank from strongest to weakest acid.
1. HBrO
2. HClO
3. HClO2
4. HClO3

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{HClO_3 > HClO_2 >HClO > HBrO}"

Explanation:

We arrange oxoacids to decrease the intensity of acids in this question. Or we may conclude all this from strongest to weakest acids they order oxoacids, that's why above given order is correct.

How much water will be required to dissolve 0.3g of benzoic acid at 95oC given that the solubility of BA at 95oC is 68.0g/L?
Ainat [17]
Write as a proportion, showing the relationship of both given information:
68.0g 0.3g
---------- = -----------
1L x ( your answer)

Cross multiply: 68.0g× X = 0.3g × 1L
68.0g (X)= 0.3g/L
Solve for X by dividing both sides by 68.0 g
68.0g (X) = 0.3g/L
------------- ------------------
68.0g 68.0g

Then enter into calculator 0.3/68 and that will be your solution. Make sure you round up.

Describe the characteristics of the moon and the Earth for each phase of the
Yuri [45]
Before we describe the phases of the Moon, let's describe what they're not. Some people mistakenly believe the phases come from Earth's shadow cast on the Moon. Others think that the Moon changes shape due to clouds. These are common misconceptions, but they're not true. Instead, the Moon's phase depends only on its position relative to Earth and the Sun.

The Moon doesn't make its own light, it just reflects the Sun's light as all the planets do. The Sun always illuminates one half of the Moon. Since the Moon is tidally locked, we always see the same side from Earth, but there's no permanent "dark side of the Moon." The Sun lights up different sides of the Moon as it orbits around Earth – it's the fraction of the Moon from which we see reflected sunlight that determines the lunar phase.
