Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The most basic site in the given species is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Basicity of a compound depends on the
pKa value of a functional group in different compounds is similar in the absence of resonance involving the functional group.
This concept can be used to compare the basicity of different functional groups that may be present in a compound.
(b)
Interpretation:
The most basic site in the given species is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Basicity of a compound depends on the functional groups present in it. The pKa value of a functional group determines its acidic strength as well as the strength of its conjugate base. The conjugate base formed from a weak acid is strong, and the conjugate base formed from a strong acid is a weak. The higher the pKa, weaker the acid and therefore stronger the conjugate base.
pKa value of a functional group in different compounds is similar in the absence of resonance involving the functional group.
This concept can be used to compare the basicity of different functional groups that may be present in a compound.

- Question 19 0/2 pts 3 Details You have a mixture of sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium chloride (KCl) dissolved in water and want to separate out the Cl- ions by precipitating them out using silver ions (Ag+). The chemical equation for the net ionic reaction of NaCl and KCl with silver nitrate, AgNO3, is shown below. Ag+(aq) + Cl(aq) → AgCl(s) The total mass of the NaCl/KCl mixture is 1.299 g. Adding 50.42 mL of 0.381 M solution precipitates out all of the Cl-. What are the masses of NaCl and KCl in the mixture? Atomic masses: g: Mass of NaCl g: Mass of KCL Ag = 107.868 g mol- 1 Cl = 35.453 g mol- 1 K = 39.098 g mol- N = 14.007 g mol−1 Na = 22.99 g mol−1 0 = 15.999 g mol 1 Question Help: ✓ Message instructor Submit Questionarrow_forwardPart 1.

Show the stereochemistry clearly in the structures, if any. If there is a major product, draw the structures of the major product with stereochemistry clearly indicated where applicable. Show only the diastereomers (you do not have to draw the pairs of enantiomers). If you believe that multiple products are formed in approximately equal amounts (hence neither is the major product), draw the structures of the products, and show the detailed mechanism of these reactions to justify the formation of the multiple products. If you believe no product is formed, explain why briefly. (6 mark for each, except f and g, which are 10 mark each)arrow_forward
