If you add water to acid, you form an extremely concentrated solution of acid initially and the solution may boil very violently, splashing concentrated acid.The concentration of a solute is very important in studying chemical reactions because it determines...
1 Answers 1 viewsAcidity is the ability of compound to lose hydrogen ion H+, leaving an anion behind. Acidity depends on the stability of the anion formed. The most acidic organic compound are...

1 Answers 1 viewsWhen an atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion that we call an anion. Anions are larger in size than their parent atoms because they have one...
1 Answers 1 viewsThe anions can be arranged in order of decreasing basic strength as follows: Alkynide > alkenide > alkanide The basic strength is defined by the capability of anion to use...
1 Answers 1 viewsBasicity is a subset of nucleophilicity. All nucleophiles are Lewis bases; they donate a lone pair of electrons. A “base” (or, “Bronsted base”) is just the name we give to...
1 Answers 1 viewsAnswer: Basicity is a thermodynamic property and Nucleophilicity is kinetic property. Basicity is the measure in which extent base can abstract the proton. If Basicity is high equilibrium will favour...
1 Answers 1 viewsEven though both compounds do not contain H+ and OH- ions, Arrhenius concept in these cases can be applied from the point that adding Na2CO3 to water increases the concentration...
1 Answers 1 viewsThe nitrogen center of pyridine features a basic lone pair of electrons. This lone pair does not overlap with the aromatic π-system ring, consequently pyridine is basic, having chemical properties...
1 Answers 1 viewsThe higher the electronegativity, the more pronounced are the acid properties. Accordingly, the main properties below.When interacting with water, ionic substances decompose into ions - cations and anions. At the...
