Chapter 10: Q.10.83 (page 359)

Identify the stronger acid in each of the following pairs: (10.3)
a. HF or HCN
b. $H_{3} O^{+} or H_{2} S$
c. ${HNO}_{2} or {HC}_{2} H_{3} O_{2}$
d. $H_{2} O or {HCO}_{3}^{鈭�}$

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part a. HF

Part b. $H_{3} O^{+}$

Part c. $H N O_{2}$

Part d. $H C {O_{3}}^{-}$

Step by step solution

Given Information (Part a)

An acid is any hydrogen-containing substance that is fit for donating a proton (hydrogen ion) to another substance. A base is a particle or ion ready to acknowledge a hydrogen ion from an acid. Acidic substances are normally identified by their acrid taste.

Explanation Part (a)

HF is stronger acid as the conjugate base $F^{-}$ of HF is weaker base than the conjugate base $C N^{-}$ of HCN.

Explanation Part (b)

$H_{3} O^{+}$ is stronger acid its conjugate base $H_{2} O$ is a weaker base than the conjugate base of $H_{2} S$ .

Explanation Part (c)

$H N O_{2}$ is stronger acid its conjugate base $N {O_{2}}^{-}$ is weaker than the conjugate base of ${HC}_{2} H_{3} O_{2}$ .

Explanation Part (d)

$H C {O_{3}}^{-}$ is stronger acid its conjugate base ${CO}_{3}^{2 鈭�}$ is weaker than the conjugate base of $H_{2} O$ .
