Concept explainers

Ionic Equilibrium

Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.

Arrhenius Acid

Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.

Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry

Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.

16-27 Guanidine, p/Ca 13.6, is a very strong base, almost as basic as hydroxide ion. NH NH2+ II II H2N—C—NH2 + H2O H2N—C—NH2 + OH" Guanidine Guanidinium ion pKb = 13.6 Complete the Lewis structure for guanidine, showing all valence electrons. The remarkable basicity of guanidine is attributed to the fact that the positive charge on the guanidinium ion is delocalized by resonance over the three nitrogen atoms. This delocalization increases the stability of the guanidinium ion relative to the ammonium ion or substituted ammonium ions. Draw three equivalent contributing structures for the guanidinium ion and show by the use of curved arrows how these three contributors are related. Propose an explanation for the fact that protonation occurs on the C=NH nitrogen rather than on one of the —NH., nitrogens.
