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.
Which is a stronger acid?
Hello. Since your question has multiple sub-parts, we will solve the first three sub-parts for you. If you want remaining sub-parts to be solved, then please resubmit the whole question and specify those sub-parts you want us to solve.
(a) The acidic character of the given substances is due to the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group which is attached to a carbonyl group. In the acrylic acid (CH2=CHCOOH), the hydroxyl group is attached to a carbonyl group which is further bonded with an sp2 hybridized carbon whereas, in the case of propanoic acid, the carbonyl group is bonded with an sp3 hybridized carbon. The sp2 hybridized carbon makes the acrylic acid stronger acid as it makes the carbonyl carbon more electrophilic.
