NaF Ans. + NaNO3 and Ca(ClO4)2 form neutral salts. NH4 is a weak acid and Cl is the conjugate base of HCl NH4Cl is acidic. Hydrated Fe3+, Fe3+(H2O)6, is also acidic. F-, the conjugate base of a weak acid, is a weak base. NaF forms a basic solution. 4. Consider the following series of acids: CH3CO2H, ClCH2CO2H, Cl2CHCO2H, Cl3CCO2H Which statement explains the trend the pKAs (left to right). A. B. C. D. E. pKAs increase due to inductive effects generated by the substitution of H by Cl. pKAs decrease due to inductive effects generated by the substitution of H by Cl. Ans. pKAs increase due to the larger number of resonance structures possible in the anion. pKAs decrease due to the larger number of resonance structures possible in the anion. Both B and D. The greater electronegativity of Cl relative to H stabilizes the conjugate base anion by an inductive effect; pKas decrease as more Cl is substituted for H. Resonance also stabilizes the anion, but the resonance structures are the same in all members of the series, and thus resonance does not contribute to the trend. page 2 Chem 112, Fall 05 Name:_______Exam 3A KEY________________ (Print Clearly) Exam 3A 5.
