Textbook Question
Chapter 2.9, Problem 35P
Using the table of pKa values given in Appendix I, answer the following:
- a. Which is the most acidic organic compound in the table?
- b. Which is the least acidic organic compound in the table?
- c. Which is the most acidic
carboxylic acid in the table? - d. Which is more electronegative: an sp3 oxygen or an sp2 oxygen? (Hint: Pick a compound in Appendix I with a hydrogen attached to an sp2 oxygen and one with a hydrogen attached to an sp3 oxygen and compare their pKa values.)
- e. Which compounds demons that the relative electronegativities of a hybridized nitrogen atom are sp > sp2 > sp3?

Indicate the options for an electrified interface:1. Temperature has no influence on it.2. Not all theories that describe it include a well-defined electrical double layer.3. Under favorable conditions, its differential capacitance can be determined with the help of experimental measurements.4. A component with high electronic conductivity is involved in its formation.
To describe the structure of the interface, there are theories or models that can be distinguished by:1. calculation of the charge density.2. distribution of ions in the solution.3. experimentally measured potential difference.4. external Helmoltz plane.
Indicate the correct options when referring to Luther's equation:1. It is not always easy to compare its results with experimental results.2. It depends on the number of electrons exchanged in the species involved.3. Its foundation is thermodynamic.4. The values calculated with it do not depend on temperature.
