Question

Which of these species can function as a weak base in solution?

CHBrClF (bromochlorofluoromethane)

NH(CH3)3Cl

Li2HPO4

Two of the species can function as weak bases.
water
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

1.CHBrClF,

2.NH(CH3)3Cl

3.Li2HPO4

among all the given compounds, .NH(CH3)3Cl is a strong base that is tetiary amine.

and rest of those two CHBrClF, Li2HPOare weak bases.

in Li2HPO4 there is resonance is possible hence negative charge is delocalized hence makes it as weak base.
