@mrhansenable The strength of an acid depends on 1) polarity of the bond 2) bond strength 3) stability of the conjugate acid. Most of the time when you straight up look at a molecue, the stability of the conjugate acid will be the main factor but the others play a role when you're comparing. 1) compare the bond between CH of methane(CH3) and HCl due to electronegativity, HCl is much more polar making it easy to abstract the proton.

@mrhansenable on a larger atom such as Cl- the negative charge has a larger area to move around in (more polarization), thus making it more free and less cramped (to put it simply) Thus HF is a weaker acid. Remember, the explanations are based on trends..notice when i say "strongER" or "weakER" or MORE polar "LESS polar ...much of this is relative ..only when you're comparing different atoms. acid strength for hydrohalogen HI>HBr>HCl>HF same explanation for each.
@joekimusic 13 жыл бұрын
@mrhansenable that's why methane is not acidic because the proton is difficult to abstract. 2) compare HCl to HF F is more polar as you know but now we must look at bond strength as well ..down the groups on the periodic table, bond strength increases as you go up because essentially the atom is smaller, the positive protons in the flourine nucleus are closer to the valence electrons and thus a bond will also be closer and more stable or strong. Thus the bond between HF is more difficult

2) acidity also depends on the H-E bond energy when bond energy is a smaller value acidity increases as it is easy to break the bond (as you go down the group atoms get bigger so the bond length become higher and bond become weaker that is because when bond length is long u get weaker pi orbital overlapping ) soo according to that HF is the weakest acid in group 7 so HF is a weaker acid than HCl,HBr,HI and also HF has strong H bonds which make it even weaker

Usually, a conjugate of a weak acid is NOT a strong base. Ka * Kb = 1*10^(-14). From the formula you can calculate that for example HCO3- ¨s conjugate base's Kb is only 2.1 * 10^(-4) which means that it's not a strong base. I think you could say that the acid is a weaker acid than it's conjugate base is as a base. However if we count H2O as a weak acid, we can use the same formula to check it's conjugate base's Kb which is now over 50. I would say that the conjugate is only rarely a strong base.

@mrhansenable thus making HF a weaker acid. 3) this is mostly what ties things together...the strength of the conjugate base. If you look at HF the conjugate base is F- Molecules, atoms don't like to have charges on them, correct? Electron density caused by the net negative charge makes the atom destabilized. F is much smaller than Cl (know periodic trends!) Thus the negative charge destabilizes it more than it does Cl-. Same net charge on a smaller atom is worst. On a larger atom

@MrMetacognition That's not necessarily true. A weak acid could have a week conjugate base. However, the weakER an acid get's, the strongER it's conjugate base. Similarly, we could say the StrongER the Acid, the WeakER the base. Infact, the conjugate bases of Strong aces are so weak that we consider them to be neutral species.

@sonnytrujillo nop, weak bases form conjugate weak acids. you book does not lie, but neither does the video. if the acid yielded by a weak base was strong, it would dissociate completely which means that the resulting conjugate base would not be strong enough to grab H+ therefore its effects would be considered neutral. that would not make sense because we know that the base in question (although weak) is strong enough to react with water and grab one of its H+. (hope that helps!)

Not necessarily. Take, for instance, acetic acid. The conjugate base of this weak acid is indeed a weak base. Therefore, it is just as correct to say the conjugate base of a weak acid is a weak base as it is to say the conjugate base of a weak acid can be a strong base. Simply take the acid/base into context.

strong acids and bases make VERY WEAK conjugate bases and acids, respectively, you're right. but weak acids and bases still make weak conjugate bases and acids (respectively), only THESE conjugate bases and acids are LESS WEAK than those formed from strong bronsted-lowry acids and bases. so overall they all form fairly weak conjugates but those formed from STRONGER bronsted-lowry acids or bases tend to be RELATIVELY WEAKER. hope this helps!
@joekimusic 13 жыл бұрын
Actually.. saying a weak acid will produce a weak conjugate base is a common fallacy in many chemistry textbooks. Its a dumbed down version of the truth. A weak acid can have a weak conjugated base or strong conjugate base. Acid strength is on a log continuum with conjugate base strength on the y axis. What determines the conjugate strength is its Kb. But A strong acid definitely produces a weak conjugate base.
