Question
Chapter 2, Problem 34P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The acid-base reactions with curved arrows should be identified.
Concept introduction: In a typical acid-base reaction the fundamental principle is a lone pair of base reaches out for an acidic proton. Similar curved arrows are used to show the movement of electrons.. After deprotonation, the species left with a negative charge is referred to as the conjugate base of acid while the other with a positive charge is termed conjugate acid of given base. For example;
The strength of various conjugate acid-base pairs varies inversely to one another; the strong acid has a weak conjugate base and the strong base has weak conjugate acid and vice-versa.
