Chapter 7, Problem 44PP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The protic and aprotic nature for the given solvents should be classified.

Concept Introduction:

Protic solvent: solvents that contains ${\text{H}}^{+}$ bonded to electronegative atom.

Aprotic solvent: they do not contain ${\text{H}}^{+}$ directly bonded to the electronegative atom.

Electronegativity: it is the ability of atom to attract a lone pair of electrons towards itself in a substrate. Electronegativity property follows the trend that it increases across the periods and decreases down the column in the periodic table.
