The correct Answer is:
To determine how many of the given acids are monobasic in nature, we need to analyze each acid based on its structure and the number of replaceable hydrogen ions (H⁺) it can donate. An acid is considered monobasic if it can donate only one H⁺ ion. Let's analyze each acid step by step: 1. **H₂S (Hydrogen Sulfide)**: - Structure: H₂S can dissociate to give H⁺ and HS⁻. - Replaceable H⁺: 2 (both H⁺ can be released). - Basicity: 2 (dibasic). 2. **H₂O₂ (Hydrogen Peroxide)**: - Structure: H₂O₂ does not behave as a typical acid; it does not donate H⁺ easily. - Replaceable H⁺: 0. - Basicity: 0 (not acidic). 3. **H₃O₂ (Dihydroxydihydronium)**: - Structure: H₃O₂ can donate H⁺ from the hydroxyl groups. - Replaceable H⁺: 2. - Basicity: 2 (dibasic). 4. **HCOOH (Formic Acid)**: - Structure: HCOOH can dissociate to give H⁺ and HCOO⁻. - Replaceable H⁺: 1 (the H from the carboxyl group). - Basicity: 1 (monobasic). 5. **H₃BO₃ (Boric Acid)**: - Structure: H₃BO₃ can accept hydroxide ions but can only donate 1 H⁺. - Replaceable H⁺: 1. - Basicity: 1 (monobasic). 6. **H₃PO₂ (Phosphorous Acid)**: - Structure: H₃PO₂ can dissociate to give H⁺ and H₂PO₂⁻. - Replaceable H⁺: 1 (the H from the hydroxyl group). - Basicity: 1 (monobasic). 7. **HXO₄ (Generalized Acid)**: - Structure: Similar to other oxoacids, it can donate one H⁺ from the hydroxyl group. - Replaceable H⁺: 1. - Basicity: 1 (monobasic). 8. **Ph-SO₃H (Benzene Sulfonic Acid)**: - Structure: The sulfonic acid group can donate one H⁺. - Replaceable H⁺: 1. - Basicity: 1 (monobasic). Now, let's summarize the findings: - H₂S: Dibasic (2) - H₂O₂: Not acidic (0) - H₃O₂: Dibasic (2) - HCOOH: Monobasic (1) - H₃BO₃: Monobasic (1) - H₃PO₂: Monobasic (1) - HXO₄: Monobasic (1) - Ph-SO₃H: Monobasic (1) **Total Monobasic Acids**: HCOOH, H₃BO₃, H₃PO₂, HXO₄, Ph-SO₃H = 5 acids. ### Final Answer: There are **5** acids that are monobasic in nature.
