For the compound below please determine which of the two protons (a) or (b) is more acidic using the ARIO rule and explain your reasoning. Note: To answer the question correctly, please draw both Conjugate Base 1 and Conjugate Base 2. Determine which of the two protons is more acidic using the ARIO rule and explain your reasoning - if the reason is R (number of Resonance Structures) please draw all the resonance structures. Make sure you keep track of all formal charges and lone pairs. H a b A: Proton (a) is more acidic because of A (atom type and/or size in ARIO) B: Proton (b) is more acidic because of A (atom type and/or size in ARIO) C: Proton (a) is more acidic because of R (number of resonance structures in ARIO) D: Proton (b) is more acidic because of R (number of resonance structures in ARIO) E: Proton (a) is more acidic because of I (induction in ARIO) F: Proton (b) is more acidic because of I (induction in ARIO) G: Proton (a) is more acidic because of O (orbital type in ARIO) H: Proton (b) is more acidic because of O (orbital type in ARIO)
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.
