Question

Determine the weaker base between the two. Explain $$why.HO^{−} or$$ $$Cl^{−}$$

Accepted Answer

$$Cl^{−}$$;It is the weaker base because its corresponding acid (HCl) is stronger.

Answer

$$HO^{−}$$_{;}It is the weaker base because its corresponding acid ($$H_{2}O) is $$stronger.

Answer

Neither of the two;The two conjugate bases are similar in strength since the atoms bonded to H (of the corresponding acids $$H_{2}O $$and HCl) are both electronegative.

Answer

Neither of the two;The two conjugate bases are similar in strength since their corresponding acids ($$H_{2}O $$and HCl) are strong.
