- What is the relative trend in acidity and pKa of the two compounds? a. Structure I is the most acidic, and Structure I has the highest pKa. b. Structure I is the most acidic, and Structure I has the lowest pKa. c. Structure II is the most acidic, and Structure I has the highest pKa. d. Structure II is the most acidic, and Structure I has the lowest pKa.arrow_forwardIn each equilibrium, label the stronger acid, the stronger base, the weaker acid, and the weaker base. Also estimate the position of each equilibrium.
