SECTION D
The following questions are case-based questions. Each question carries 4 marks. Read the passage carefully and answer
the questions that follow.

31. According to Arrehenius, acids give H + ions while bases produce OH˗ ions in their aqueous solutions. Bronsted-Lowry
defined an acid as a proton donor and a base as a proton acceptor. When a Bronsted – Lowry acid reacts with a base, it
produces its conjugate base and a conjugate acid corresponding to the base with which it reacts. Thus, a conjugate pair of
acid - base differs only by a proton. Lewis further generalized the definition of an acid as an electron pair acceptor and a
base as an electron pair donor. The strength of acids and bases can be measured in terms of their dissociation constants
Ka (or pKa) and Kb (or pKb). Larger value of Ka or lower value of pKa corresponds to greater strength of acids. Similarly,
larger value of Kb or lower value of pKb corresponds to stronger base.
a. Write the conjugate acid -base pair for the following [1]
-
i) NH3 ii) HSO4

b. How is strength of acid related to pKa value? [1]

c. Dissociation constant for two different acids are 1x10-5 and 3.6x10-10. Which one is the stronger acid? [1]

d. Classify the following as Lewis acid and base. NH3, BF3, AlCl3, CH3NH2 [1]

Case based question II

32.Hyperconjugation effect is a permanent effect in which localization of σ electrons of C-H bond of an alkyl group directly
attached to an atom of the unsaturated system or to an atom with an unshared p orbital takes place.

From the above figure, we observe that one of the three C-H bonds of the methyl group can align in the plane of the empty
p orbital and the electrons constituting the C-H bond in a plane with this p orbital can then be delocalized into the empty p
orbital.
We also observe that the hyperconjugation stabilizes the carbocation as it helps in the dispersal of positive charges. Thus,
we can say that the greater the number of alkyl groups attached to a positively charged carbon atom, the greater is the
hyperconjugation interaction and stabilization of the carbocation.
Now answer the following questions:
1. Compare the stability of ethyl carbocation, isopropyl carbocation and tertiary butyl carbocation and explain their relative
stability using hyperconjugation.
2. Which of the following alkene is most stable and why?
But-1-ene, but-2-ene, 2-methylbut-2-ene or pent -2 -ene.
