2.2 Nitromethane (CH3NO2, pka = 10) is more acidic than most organic acids. Explain why nitromethane is so much more acidic than ethane (pka = 60). Write the chemical equations to illustrate the acidity of the compounds. Include valid Lewis dot structures (including formal charge) and resonance structures, if relevant. (6)

Acetonitrile (CH3CN) has a pK, of 25, making it more acidic than many other compounds having only C-H bonds. Draw structures for acetonitrile and its conjugate base using skeletal structures. Use resonance structures to account for the acidity of acetonitrile. draw structure ... Acetonitrile Acetonitrile's conjugate base: draw structure... draw structure ... (negative charge on ) (negative charge on N) The acidity of acetonitrile is accounted for by: O Acetonitrile's conjugate base is stabilized by resonance. O Acetonitrile's conjugate base...
Provide a resonance structures which explain why ortho and para nitrophenol are much more acidic than phenol
Using resonance structures as part of your answer, explain why Br in bromobenzene is: a. A mild ring deactivator b. An o-, p-director. [Note: It is not enough to use resonance structures from part "a" to "prove" part "b". One must show that o-, p-attack is faster, i.e. has lower Ea (AGa) by actually showing an electrophile, e.g. the generalized E+, attacking at the o-, m-& p-positions and, using Hammond's Principle, explain why the o-, p-attacks are favored.] Explain what...

Writing Lewis Structures d. Because oxygen is more electronegative than nitrogen, it is more likely to have a negative formal charge. Which structure would then be the best description of N,O? e. Are the structures that have the N-O-N bond skeleton resonance forms of the structures with the N-N-O skeleton? Explain. 4. Hydrogen isocyanide, HNC, will convert to hydrogen cyanide, HCN, over time. Use their Lewis structures to explain this.
Rank the acids in increasing acidity.
a b c d e
I do not know the answer.
My guess is e > c > a > d > b
reason: since this is positively charged, I thought that
stabilizing the positive charge will lead to a stronger acid. I did
not think about the conjugate bases. So, since lower
electronegativity atom will stabilize the positive charge more, c
and e would be the most acidic since N is less...
Please help...and explain..
Rank the acidity of the protons shown in the picture (from most acidic to least) I > II > III = IV IV > I = II > III IV > I > II > II I > II > IV > III What accounts for the difference between the acidity of proton (IV) and protons (I and II)?
