Question
Chapter 16, Problem 40QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The pOH and pH values of aqueous solutions are to be determined, when the concentrations of bases are given.
Concept introduction:
A strong base is an electrolyte that completely dissociates, when dissolved in water, to produce hydroxide ions and its conjugate acid.
pOH is the measure of basicity of a solution and pH is the measure of its acidity. They both depend on the concentration of hydroxide ions and hydronium ions, and the temperature of the solution.
The formula to calculate the pOH is:
The relationship between pH and pOH is:

PLEASE READ!!! I DONT WANT EXAMPLES, I DONT WANT WORDS OR PARAGRAPHS!!! PLEASE I UNDERSTAND THE BASICS BUT THIS IS AN EXCEPTION THAT EVEN THE INTERNET CANT HELP!!!!
THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I'VE SENT THOSE QUESTIONS SO PLEASE DONT RESEND THE SAME STUFF, ITS NOT HELPING ME!!!
I ALSO ALREADY TRIED TO DRAW THE MECHANISM MYSELF, SO IF ITS RIGHT PLEASE TELL ME OR TELL ME WHAT I HAVE TO CHANGE!!!
First image: I have to SHOW (DRAWING) the mechanism (with arows and structures of molecules) NOT WORDS PLEASE! of the reaction at the bottom. Also I have to show by mecanism why the reaction wouldn't work if the alcohol was primary
Second image: I have to show the mechanism (IMAGE) (with arrows and structures of the molecules) NOT WORDS PLEASE !! for the reaction on the left, where the alcohol A is added fast in one portion
HOMEWORK, NOT EXAM!!
ALL DETAILS ARE IN THE IMAGES PLEASE LOOK AT THE IMAGES, DONT LOOK AT THE AI GENERATED TEXT!!!
