Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The structural formula of the conjugate acid formed by reaction of given compound with hydrogen chloride has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Acids: These are substance that donates proton.
Bases: These are substances that accepts proton.
Conjugate acid: It is formed when a base accepts a proton from an acid.
Conjugate base: Transformation of proton from an acid to a base leads to formation of new species called conjugate base.
Lewis structure: This is the only way to show the sharing of electrons between atom in polar covalent bonds or covalent bond. This is often called Lewis structure. This structure denotes valence electrons of an atom by dots and also it shows the way of valence electron distributed within a molecule.
