Given the following information: nitrous acid = HNO2 hydrocyanic acid = HCN HNO2 is a stronger acid than HCN (1) Write the net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when equal volumes of 0.080 M aqueous nitrous acid and sodium cyanide are mixed. It is not necessary to include states such as (aq) or (s). + + (2) Which is the strongest base, NO2- or CN- ? (3) At equilibrium the what will be favored?

Expert Solution

2. CN- is a stronger base

Nitrogen is less electronegative than oxygen, so it will easily use the lone pair of electron on itself. The Lone pair on Oxygen will be seeded deep inside and there is resonance in NO2-
