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.

- The emission data in cps displayed in Table 1 is reported to two decimal places by the chemist. However, the instrument output is shown in Table 2. Table 2. Iron emission from ICP-AES Sample Blank Standard Emission, cps 579.503252562 9308340.13122 Unknown Sample 343.232365741 Did the chemist make the correct choice in how they choose to display the data up in Table 1? Choose the best explanation from the choices below. No. Since the instrument calculates 12 digits for all values, they should all be kept and not truncated. Doing so would eliminate significant information. No. Since the instrument calculates 5 decimal places for the standard, all of the values should be limited to the same number. The other decimal places are not significant for the blank and unknown sample. Yes. The way Saman made the standards was limited by the 250-mL volumetric flask. This glassware can report values to 2 decimal places, and this establishes our number of significant figures. Yes.
