Chapter 1, Problem 1.5P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The formal charges on each atom of the given structure are to be computed. Also, the charge on the entire structure is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

A charge that is assigned to an atom, on the assumption that all the electrons in the chemical bonds are equally shared, is known as the formal charge. The sum of the formal charges on the independent atoms should equal the total charge present on the ion.

The formal charge on an atom is calculated by the formula,

Formal charge=Valence electrons[Nonbonding electrons+12(Bonding electrons)]

We learned four factors (ARIO) for comparing the relative acidity of compounds. When two of these factors are in competition, the order of priority is the order in which these factors were covered ("atom" being the most important factor and "orbital" being the least important). However, we also mentioned that there are exceptions to this order of priority. Compare the two compounds and identify the exception. OH PK-4.75 SH PK-10.6 5. "Resonance" is more important than "atom" because the conjugate base of first compound is more stable than the second. "Atom" is more important than "resonance" because the conjugate base of first compound is more stable than the second. "Resonance" is more important than "atom" because the conjugate base of second compound is more stable than the first. "Atom" is more important than "resonance" because the conjugate base of second compound is more stable than the first.
