Chapter 16, Problem 16.46CP

Boric acid (H 3 BO 3 ) is a weak monoprotic acid that yields H 3 O + ions in water H 3 BO 3 might behave either as a Bronsted— Lowry acid or as a Lewis acid, though it is, in fact, a Lewis acid.

Chapter 16, Problem 16.46CP, Boric acid (H3BO3) is a weak monoprotic acid that yields H3O+ ions in water H3BO3 might behave

(a) Write a balanced equation for the reaction with water in which H 3 BO 3 behaves as a Bronsted—Lowry acid.

(b) Write a balanced equation for the reaction with water in which H 3 BO 3 behaves as a Lewis acid. Hint: One of the reaction products contains a tetrahedral boron atom.

Boric acid, H3BO3, is not a Brønsted-Lowry acid but a Lewis acid.(a) Write an equation for its reaction with water.(b) Predict the shape of the anion thus formed.(c) What is the hybridization on the boron consistent with the shape you have predicted?
KHP is an ionic compound composed of a potassium cation K+ and a hydrogen phthalate anion HP– . HP– is a weak acid and upon dissolving in water, can lower the pH of the solution. (a) Suggest the chemical reaction(s) when a solid sample of KHP is dissolved in water, writing out the chemical equations for them. (b) Sketch the structure of KHP from above and circle the hydrogen atom that is responsible for its acidity. (c) Calculate the pH of a solution made of 0.50 g of KHP and 50 mL of water. KHP has a molar mass of 204.2 g mol and at 25 °C has a pKa of 5.4.
