(a)
Interpretation: The product of the reaction between
Concept introduction: A Lewis acid-base reaction takes place between an electron rich species and an electron deficient species. In such reactions, a Lewis base (electron rich species) donates electron pair to a Lewis acid (electron deficient species) and forms a new bond.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
- When the conjugate acid of aniline, C6H5NH3+, reacts with the acetate ion, the following reaction takes place: C6H5NH3+(aq)+CH3COO(aq)C6H5NH2(aq)+CH3COOH(aq) If Kafor C6H5NH3+ is 1.35105 and Kafor CH3COOH is 1.86105 , what is K for the reaction?arrow_forwardIn each of the following reactions, two possible organic products can be formed. Draw both organic products in each case and then circle the one formed in greatest quantity in each case.

- Identify the principal organic product in each case NaH CH3C .OH 7arrow_forwardBriefly, but clearly, explain why the –OH hydrogen in acetic acid (CH3CO2H) is more acidic than in ethanol (C2H5OH).arrow_forward75. Salicylic acid, HOC6H4CO2H, and its derivatives have been used as pain relievers for a long time. Salicylic acid occurs in small amounts in the leaves, bark, and roots of some vegetation (most notably historically in the bark of the willow tree). Extracts of these plants have been used as medications for centuries. The acid was first isolated in the laboratory in 1838. (a) Both functional groups of salicylic acid ionize in water, with Ka = 1.0 x 10-3 for the-CO2H group and 4.2 x 10-13 for the -OH group. What is the pH of a saturated solution of the acid (solubility = 1.8 g/L). (b) Aspirin was discovered as a result of efforts to produce a derivative of salicylic acid that would not be irritating to the stomach lining. Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid, CH3CO2C6H4CO2H. The -CO2H functional group is still present, but its acidity is reduced, Ka = 3.0 × 10-4. What is the pH of a solution of aspirin with the same concentration as a saturated solution of salicylic acid (See Part a).arrow_forward
- Explain why the pH of a 0.25 M solution of formic acid (HCO2H) has a lower pH than a solution that is 0.25 M in both formic acid and sodium formate (NaCO2H). Please include chemical reactions.arrow_forwardList the following alcohols in order from strongest acid to weakest acid. CH2=CHCH, OH, CH3 CH2 CH, OH, HC=CCH2OH Rank the following in order from strongest to weakest acid.arrow_forwardThe presence of a pi bond also makes a compound a base. With this in mind, draw the conjugate acid of ethylene, CH2=CH2.arrow_forward
