- Which base, CH3NH2 or (CH3)2NH, is the stronger base? Which conjugate acid, (CH3)2NH2+ or (CH3)2NH3+, is the stronger acid?arrow_forwardWhat is the relative trend in acidity and pKa of the two compounds? a. Structure I is the most acidic, and Structure I has the highest pKa. b. Structure I is the most acidic, and Structure I has the lowest pKa. c. Structure II is the most acidic, and Structure I has the highest pKa. d. Structure II is the most acidic, and Structure I has the lowest pKa.arrow_forwardIn each equilibrium, label the stronger acid, the stronger base, the weaker acid, and the weaker base. Also estimate the position of each equilibrium. (a) CH3CH2O + CH3CCH CH3CH2OH + CH3CC (b) CH3CH2O + HCl CH3CH2OH + Cl (c) CH3COOH + CH3CH2O CH3COO + CH3CH2OHarrow_forward
