Concept explainers

Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibri…

Arrhenius Acid

Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.

Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry

Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.

Textbook Question

Chapter 2.12, Problem 2.22P

Choose the more basic member of each pair of isomers, and show why the base you chose is more basic.

a. Chapter 2.12, Problem 2.22P, Choose the more basic member of each pair of isomers, and show why the base you chose is more basic. , example 1

SOLUTION

to (a) The first (left) compound is less basic because it is resonance-stabilized (like an amide), and protonation of its NH₂ group would destroy that resonance Moreover, the lone pair on the NH_: group is shared with the carbonyl group and the —NH₂ group carries a partial positive charge The compound on the right is an amine, which we expect to be more basic Protonation of its NH_: group would not cause loss of resonance stabilization.
