Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The products of the given acid–base reactions are to be predicted and, in each case, the stronger acid, the stronger base, the weaker acid, and the weaker base are to be labeled.
Concept introduction:
Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon, or a functional group, is substituted by any other functional group is called substitution reaction.
Elimination reaction: A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed is called elimination reaction.
Addition reaction: It is the reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated molecules by addition of molecules.
Sodium amide is a strong base that helps in the removal of terminal hydrogen of

- Liquid ammonia (anhydrous NH3(l)) is often used as a solvent. Like water, ammonia undergoes autoionization by the transfer of a proton: 2NH3 NH4+ + NH2- K = 1×10-33 at -50°C Since ammonia is better proton acceptor than water, the ionization of acids is relatively enhanced in liquid ammonia. For example, acetic acid is a strong acid in liquid ammonia. a) Estimate [NH4+] (mol/L) in pure (i.e. neutral) liquid ammonia at -50°C. b) Calculate [NH4+] (mol/L) in a 6.29×10-2 M solution of acetic acid in liquid ammonia at -50°C. c) Estimate [NH2-] (mol/L) in a 6.29×10-2 M solution of acetic acid in liquid ammonia at -50°C.arrow_forwardPredict the outcome of the following reactions and explain the reason briefly.arrow_forwardlodoform (HCl3, carbon with one hydrogen and three iodines) is a bright yellow solid.
