Solutions
Solution -1 :
Guanidine is highly stabilise after accepting H⊕, so it is most basic amine.
Solution -2 :
+M groups increases basicity while —M decreases basicity.
Solution -3 :
Carboxyllic acids are more acidic than phenol and alcohols.
Solution -4:
S is least basic as it is aromatic and lp is delocalised P is most basic as it is
aliphatic amine.
Solution -5:
Solution -6:
-M and -I groups will increase acidity while +M and +I groups will decrease.
Solution -7:
Withdrawing group will increase acidity while donating groups will decrease
acidity.
Solution -8 :
The correct order of acid strength is
Solution -9 :
α ‘H’ atoms w.r.t. C = C bond take part in hyperconjugation.
Solution -10 :
Solution -11 :
pKb values
(A) EtNH2 3.29
(B) (Et2)NH 3.00
(C) Me3N 4.22
(D) Ph - NH- Me 4.7
So, order of basic strength
(B) > (A) > (C) > (D)
Solution -12 :
Solution -13:
Solution -14 :
Solution -15 :
is the most acidic ‘H’ because the resulting anion has
2-equivalent R.S.
Solution -16 :
Solution -17 :
Stability order is
So Acidic strength order is x > y > z
So pKa is z > y > x.
