Answer: a) pH = 13.00 : basic
b) : basic
c) pOH = 5.00 : basic
d) : acidic
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.
a) pH = 13.00
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
b)
Putting in the values:
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
c) pOH = 5.00
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
d)
Putting in the values:
As pH is less than 7, the solution is acidic.
Answer:
The charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a complete octet of valence shell electrons
Explanation:
A charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a valence shell that is not filled, <u>that's why it acts as an electrophile (or a Lewis base)</u>. This unfilled valence shell is also the reason of the nucleophilic attack that takes place during the second step of a SN1 reaction.

There is nothing to answer lol
