**Formic Acid Deprotonation Problem**Formic acid, HCO₂H, is a weak acid with a pKₐ of 3.74. The question is to determine which of the following bases can sufficiently deprotonate formic acid to an extent greater than 50% at 25°C. The pK_b values for each base at 25°C are provided:- CH₃CO₂⁻ (pK_b = 9.24)- IO₃⁻ (pK_b = 13.2)- ClCH₃CO₂⁻ (pK_b = 11.1)**Reminder:** The relationship is given by pKₐ + pK_b = 14.00 at 25°C.**Options:**A. ClCH₃CO₂⁻ only B. CH₃CO₂⁻ only C. IO₃⁻ only D. IO₃⁻ and ClCH₃CO₂⁻ To determine the correct answer, compare the pK_b values given with the pKₐ of formic acid, using the provided pKₐ + pK_b relationship. A base is sufficiently strong if 14 minus its pK_b value is greater than the pKₐ of formic acid.

Given, pKa = 3.74 for formic acid

Formic acid, HCO2H, is a weak acid (pKa = 3.74). Which of the following bases is sufficiently strong to deprotonate formic acid to an extent greater than 50% (25°C)? (pKp for each base is given) CH3CO2 - (9.24) 103- (13.2) CICH3CO2 (11.1)
