  2. Acid strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_strength

    For instance, hydrogen fluoride, whether dissolved in water (= 3.2) or DMSO (= 15), has values indicating that it undergoes incomplete dissociation in these solvents, making it a weak acid. However, as the rigorously dried, neat acidic medium, hydrogen fluoride has an H 0 {\displaystyle H_{0}} value of –15, [ 1 ] making it a more strongly ...

  3. Acetyl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl_chloride

    Acetyl chloride is a reagent for the preparation of esters and amides of acetic acid, used in the derivatization of alcohols and amines. One class of acetylation reactions are esterification, for example the reaction with ethanol to produce ethyl acetate and hydrogen chloride: CH 3 COCl + HO−CH 2 −CH 3 → CH 3 −COO−CH 2 −CH 3 + HCl

  4. Acid dissociation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_dissociation_constant

    In aprotic solvents, oligomers, such as the well-known acetic acid dimer, may be formed by hydrogen bonding. An acid may also form hydrogen bonds to its conjugate base. This process, known as homoconjugation, has the effect of enhancing the acidity of acids, lowering their effective pK a values, by stabilizing the conjugate base ...

  5. Acetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetic_acid

    Acetic acid / ə ˈ s iː t ɪ k /, systematically named ethanoic acid / ˌ ɛ θ ə ˈ n oʊ ɪ k /, is an acidic, colourless liquid and organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 COOH (also written as CH 3 CO 2 H, C 2 H 4 O 2, or HC 2 H 3 O 2). Vinegar is at least 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar ...

    the ionization of substituted phenols in water (+2.008) the acid catalyzed esterification of substituted benzoic esters in ethanol (-0.085) the acid catalyzed bromination of substituted acetophenones (Ketone halogenation) in an acetic acid/water/hydrochloric acid (+0.417) the hydrolysis of substituted benzyl chlorides in acetone-water at 69.8 ...

  7. Neutralization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutralization_(chemistry)

    Overall: H 2 SO 4 + 2 OH − → SO 2− 4 + 2 H 2 O. After an acid AH has been neutralized there are no molecules of the acid (or hydrogen ions produced by dissociation of the molecule) left in solution. When an acid is neutralized the amount of base added to it must be equal to the amount of acid present initially.

  8. Acetamide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetamide

    It can also be made from anhydrous acetic acid, acetonitrile and very well dried hydrogen chloride gas, using an ice bath, alongside more valuable reagent acetyl chloride. Yield is typically low (up to 35%), and the acetamide made this way is generated as a salt with HCl.

  9. Alcohol (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(chemistry)

    When necessary, the position of the hydroxyl group is indicated by a number between the alkane name and the -ol: propan-1-ol for CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 OH, propan-2-ol for CH 3 CH(OH)CH 3. If a higher priority group is present (such as an aldehyde , ketone , or carboxylic acid ), then the prefix hydroxy- is used, [ 19 ] e.g., as in 1-hydroxy-2 ...
