Question 2

Acetic acid can be protonated in a strong acid such as sulfuric acid. Predict which oxygen becomes
  protonated and explain why.


 

Question 3

Explain why acetic acid
 
  is a much stronger acid than ethanol.

Question 4

Using resonance structures, explain why aniline,
 
  is a weaker base than benzylamine

Question 6

Complete this acid-base reaction and label the acid, base, conjugate base, and conjugate acid.
 

Question 7

Use the curved arrow method to show the electron movement and label the acid, base, conjugate acid,
  and conjugate base.


 

Question 8

Draw the conjugate acid of each species
 

Question 9

Given pKa = 15.7 for H2O and pKa = 3.2 for HF, identify the conjugate base of each of these acids and

Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

Protonation occurs on the C = O oxygen because delocalization of the charge can occur readily:

No corresponding delocalization can occur if protonation takes place on the singly bonded oxygen

because that oxygen has three sigma bonds and a lone pair and cannot accept another bond.

Answer to Question 3

The C = O group in acetic acid has an inductive effect, withdrawing electrons. More important is the
resonance effect of delocalizing the negative charge in the conjugate base of acetic acid which cannot be
done for ethanol.



Answer to Question 4

Aniline is more stabilized by resonance than its conjugate acid, but benzylamine and its conjugate acid
are equally stabilized by resonance.

Women are two-thirds more likely than men to develop irritable bowel syndrome. This may be attributable to hormonal changes related to their menstrual cycles.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.

An identified risk factor for osteoporosis is the intake of excessive amounts of vitamin A. Dietary intake of approximately double the recommended daily amount of vitamin A, by women, has been shown to reduce bone mineral density and increase the chances for hip fractures compared with women who consumed the recommended daily amount (or less) of vitamin A.

Did you know?

ACTH levels are normally highest in the early morning (between 6 and 8 A.M.) and lowest in the evening (between 6 and 11 P.M.). Therefore, a doctor who suspects abnormal levels looks for low ACTH in the morning and high ACTH in the evening.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
