Relative strengths of acids:

Can an Organic Chemistry I and II MASTER explain to me some rules of thumb in regards to the relative strengths of acids.

1) List the functional groups (alcohols, carboxylic acids, phenols, anhydrides, amides, etc.) in order of DECREASING ACIDITY.

2) In regards to substituents on aromatic rings, which substituents would act as stronger bases, why, and in what relative position (ortho, meta, or para); and if the number of substituents affects basicity?

The list will be most helpful, so please list as many functional groups as possible. Thank you in advance.

At equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. Both the forward and the reverse reactions are occurring, but because they are occurring at the same rate, no change is observed in the appearance of the solution.

For this analysis, think about the affect that the addition or removal of reactant will have on the rate of the forward reaction relative to the rate of the reverse reaction at the instant that the reactant is added or removed. You also have to think about the addition or removal of product on the rate of the reverse reaction relative to the rate of the forward reaction.

a. When the concentration of reactant is increased for a system at equilibrium, what is the effect on the rate of the forward reaction? Does an increase in the rate of reactant have any effect on the rate of the reverse reaction? Explain your answer.

b. When the concentration of reactant is increased for a system at equilibrium, which reaction is immediately faster – the forward or the reverse reaction? Why?

c. As the reaction proceeds and the added reactant is used up, what happens to the rate of the forward reaction? At the point at equilibrium has been reached, what has happened to the rate of the forward reaction relative to the rate of the reverse reaction?

d. If reactant is removed from a system at equilibrium, what is the effect on the rate of the forward reaction? Does the rate of the reverse reaction change when reactant is removed?

e. When reactant is removed in a system at equilibrium, which reaction is faster – the forward reaction or the reverse reaction? Would that result in an accumulation of reactant or product in the flask?

f. Write a statement about why the addition of product causes the reaction to shift to reactants in terms of the relative rates of the forward and reverse reactions.

g. Write a statement from a kinetic perspective about why the removal of reactant causes the reaction to shift towards reactant.

In the study of biochemical processes, a common buffering agent is the weak base trishydroxymethylaminomethane, (HOCH2)3CNH2, often abbreviated as Tris. At 25 ?C,                 Tris has a pKbof 5.91. The hydrochloride of Tris is (HOCH2)3CNH3Cl, which can be abbreviated as TrisHCl. Question 1.) What volume of 10.0 M NaOH is needed to prepare a buffer with a pH of 7.79 using 31.52 g of TrisHCl? ANSWER IS 6.67 Question 2.) The buffer from Part A is diluted to 1.00 L. To half of it (500. mL), you add 0.0100mol of hydrogen ions without changing the volume. What is the pH of the final solution? Answer IS 7.58 Question 3.) What additional volume of 10.0 M HCl would be needed to exhaust the remaining capacity of the buffer after the reaction described in Part B?   

Determine the pH during the titration of 25.4 mL of 0.346 M HI by 0.346 M NaOH at the following points:

(a) Before the addition of any NaOH

(b) After the addition of 12.7 mL of NaOH

(c) At the equivalence point

(d) After adding 32.0 mL of NaOH

A buffer is prepared by adding 150 mL of 1.0 M NaOH to 250 mL of 1.0 M NaH₂PO₄. How many moles of HCl must be added to this buffer solution to change the pH by 0.25 units? Assume the total volume remains unchanged at 400 mL.
For H₂PO₄^-, K_a = 6.3 × 10^-8.

Based on the data above, calculate the slope of the line of the absorbance vs relative concentration for each for the four data sets (Part III in your lab manual).

Let:

αHMR

αMR^-
