Why is HCl so acidic?
For example, why is H-Cl more acidic than H-S-CH3?
Isn't the conjugate base's negative charge more stabilized with a sulfur and extra methyl group (by the induction effect)? While Cl is more electronegative than Sulfur, I would assume Cl being alone as its own ion would make it less stable.
As we will see in later chapters, many steps in key reaction sequences involve acid–base reactions. (a) Draw curved arrows to illustrate the flow of electrons in steps [1]–[3]. (b) Identify the base and its conjugate acid in step [1]. (c) Identify the acid and its conjugate base in step [3].
Consider cyclohexane and benzene (draw the structures below). Draw the conjugate base of each molecule and then explain why cyclohexane is the weaker acid.

- Answer true or false to the following statements about the mechanism of acid-base reactions. (a) The acid and base must encounter each other by a collision in order for the proton to transfer. (b) All collisions between acids and bases result in proton transfer. (c) During an acid-base reaction the lone pair on the base fills the A-H antibonding sigma orbital.arrow_forwardThe following are equivalent ways of asking about the acidity of an H atom: • What is the most acidic H on the molecule? • Which H is associated with the published pKa value? • Which H on the molecule is easiest to remove? • Which H on the molecule takes the least energy to remove? • Which bond to an H is most polarized? • For which H atom is removal least uphill in energy? • Which bond to an H atom, when broken, results in the lowest PE conjugate base? We will often find the last of these questions is easiest to answer. To do this, find all the different Hatoms on the molecule, and draw all possible conjugate bases.Only the lowest-energy one is the “real” conjugate base. Identify this structure, and you have found the most acidic H. Use this strategy to find the most acidic H on each of the following molecules. Note: Each structure hasat least three different kinds of H’s, so draw at least three unique conjugate bases for each.arrow_forwardComplete the equation for the reaction between each Lewis acid-base pair. In each equation, label which starting material is the Lewis acid and which is the Lewis base; use curved arrows to show the flow of electrons in each reaction.
