Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 4.35AP
The sec-butyl cation can react as both a Brønsted-Lowry acid (a proton donor) and a Lewis acid (an electron pair acceptor) in the presence of a water–sulfuric acid mixture. In each case, however, the product is different. The two reactions are as follows:
- (a) In which reaction(s) does this cation react as a Lewis acid? In which reaction(s) does it react as a Brønsted-Lowry acid?
- (b) Write Lewis structures for reactants and products and show by the use of curved arrows how each reaction occurs.

Calculating the pH at equivalence of a titration
A chemist titrates 210.0 mL of a 0.1003 M hydrobromic acid (HBr) solution with 0.7550M KOH solution at 25 °C. Calculate the pH at equivalence.
Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Note for advanced students: you may assume the total volume of the solution equals the initial volume plus the volume of KOH solution added.
