- Write equations to illustrate the acid-base reaction when each of the following pairs of Brnsted acids and bases are combined: Acid Base a.HOCl H2O b.HClO4 NH3 c.H2O NH2 d.H2O OCl e.HC2O4 H2Oarrow_forwardWhat is meant by pH? True or false: A strong acid solution always has a lower pH than a weak acid solution. Explain.arrow_forwardFor oxyacids, how does acid strength depend on a. the strength of the bond to the acidic hydrogen atom? b. the electronegativity of the element bonded to the oxygen atom that bears the acidic hydrogen? c. the number of oxygen atoms? How does the strength of a conjugate base depend on these factors? What type of solution forms when a nonmetal oxide dissolves in water? Give an example of such an oxide. What type of solution forms when a metal oxide dissolves in water? Give an example of such an oxide.arrow_forward
- Use Table 14.3 to help order the following acids from strongest to weakest HNO3,H2O,NH4+,C5H5NH+arrow_forward. Water is the most common amphoteric substance, which means that, depending on the circumstances, water can behave either as an acid or as a base. Using HF as an example of an acid and NH3 as an example of a base, write equations for these substances reacting with water, in which water behaves as a base and as an acid, respectively.arrow_forwardNovocaine, C13H21O2N2Cl, is the salt of the base procaine and hydrochloric acid. The ionization constant for procaine is 7106. 15 a solution of novocaine acidic or basic? What are [H3O+], [OH-], and pH of a 2.0% solution by mass of novocaine, assuming that the density of the solution is 1.0 g/mL.arrow_forward
