Question
Chapter 11.13A, Problem 11.32P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
An explanation corresponding to given statement that methanesulfonic acid is a much stronger acid than acetic acid is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The stronger acid is also identified by its resonance structures. More is the resonance stabilised structures more is the delocalised electron density and thus more it acts as a strong acid.

Cyanic acid, HOCN, and isocyanic acid, HNCO, dissolve in water to yield the same anion on loss of H+.
Q.) Account for the fact that each acid gives the same anion on loss of H+
Write the reaction as proton-transfer reactions. Label which reactant is the acid and which is the base, which product is the conjugate base of the original acid, and which is the conjugate acid of the original base. In addition, write Lewis structures for each reactant and product and use curved arrows to show the flow of electrons in each reaction.

- Phenol, C6H5OH, is an acidic organic compound for which K₂ = 1.3 x 10-10. The structure of phenol is a benzene ring with an -OH replacing a hydrogen atom on one of its six carbon atoms. Because phenol has this -OH group, you might think that the -OH would ionize and make phenol a base. Actually, the O-H bond is very weak and phenol acts as an acid by ionizing the H* ion.
