Chapter 21, Problem 37P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason as to why the pKa of the Ha protons in 1-acteylcyclohexane higher than the pKa of the Hb protons is to be identified.

Concept introduction: The more easily an acid loses proton, the more it will be acidic. In case of organic compounds, various factors help to determine the strength of acidity. Acidic strength can be measured by a factor known as pKa. The lower the value of pKa, the stronger is the acid. Numerically, pKa is the negative base 10 logarithm of the acid dissociation constant.
