The sec-butyl cation can react as both a Brnsted-Lowry acid (a proton donor) and a Lewis acid (an electron pair acceptor) in the presence of a watersulfuric 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 Brnsted-Lowry acid? (b) Write Lewis structures for reactants and products and show by the use of curved arrows how each reaction occurs.

A buffer system works to keep pH within a narrow range. Buffer systemsare critical in all living cells/tissues. If pH were to measurably shift in a cell,what category of biological molecules would be most impacted, andwhat term refers to the resulting loss of their functional shapes? A buffer is a substance that, when it ionizes in water, creates a buffersystem. The substance and one of its ions represent a weak acid and aweak base. These form a pH-controlled equilibrium. Based on thedefinitions of acid and base, if [H+] increases, which would combine withthe H+, preventing a pH shift? If [H+] decreases, whichwould release H+ to counter a pH change? Check the one characteristic below that is important in a buffer system. maintains a neutral pH prevents pH from dropping prevents pH from rising minimizes change in p
A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.23 mol of chloroacetic acid and 0.27 mol of sodium chloroacetate in water sufficient to yield 1.00 L of solution. The addition of 0.05 mol of HCl to this buffer solution causes the pH to drop slightly. The pH does not decrease drastically because the HCl reacts with the __________ present in the buffer solution. The Ka of chloroacetic acid is 1.36 × 10-3.

A solution of sodium acetate is prepared using 0.56 mol L-1 NaOH as the solvent. The pKapKa of acetic acid is 4.75 . The concentration of sodium acetate after mixing, before any reaction takes place is 0.44 mol L-1 . Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all acid species: [ CH3COOH ], [ CH3COO- ], the pH and the pOH in the solution. Some assumptions may not work, on the other hand, if you do not make the correct assumptions first, the quadratic formula will give you the wrong answer. [ CH3COOH ] = ___mol L-1 , [ CH3COO- ] = ___mol L-1 , pH = ___ pOH = ____
Using the table of the weak base below, you have chosen Pyridine as your weak base in the buffer solution. You have already added enough of the conjugate acid salt to make the buffer solution concentration at 0.62 M in this salt. The desired pH of the buffer should be equal to 4.5. 1.

If enough of a monoprotic acid is dissolved in water to produce a 0.0124 M solution with a pH of 6.72, what is the equilibrium constant, p?a, for the acid? kindly consider the following when answering the question For weak acids that are so dilute or so weak that the pH of the solution lies between 6 and 7, the autoprotolysis of water must be taken into account when determining the p?a value. At equilibrium, there are four species in solution, the weak acid, HA, its conjugate, A−, H3O+, and OH−. Start by developing four equations that describe what is occurring in the solution at equilibrium.
