Bronsted – Lowry concept of acid and base

According to Bronsted-Lowry, an acid can be defined as any substance (molecule or ion) that has the tendency to donate a proton (H+ ) to any substance whereas a base can be defined as any substance (molecule or ion) that has the tendency to accept a proton (H+) from any other substance.

02

Conjugate acid-base pair

The residual part of acid after losing a proton will have a tendency to accept a proton (H+). Therefore, it will behave as a base. These pairs of substances which differ from one another by a proton (H+) are known as conjugate acid-base pairs. Consider a general example of an acid:

03

Prediction of the products

Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton (H+) donor while Bronsted-Lowry base is a proton (H+) acceptor.

Ozone has a dipole moment of 0.53 D. Carbon dioxide has a dipole moment of zero, even though C-O bonds are more polar than O-O bonds. Explain this apparent contradiction.

Question: The C 鈮� Ntriple bond in acetonitrile has a dipole moment of about 3.6 Dand a bond length of about 1.16 脜. Calculate the amount of charge separation in this bond. How important is the charge separated resonance form in the structure of acetonitrile?

The following compounds can all react as bases.

  1. For each compound, show its conjugate acid. Show any resonance forms if applicable.
  2. Rank the conjugate acids in the order you would predict, from most stable to least stable.
  3. Rank the original compounds in order from strongest base to weakest base.
