Assertion (A): wedge^(@).(eq(CH(3)COOH))...

Assertion `(A): wedge^(@)._(eq(CH_(3)COOH))` cannote be determines experimentally.
Reason `(R) : CH_(3)COOH` is a weak acid and DebyeHuckel Onsager equation cannot be used. Extrapolation method cannot be employed.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`CI_(3)C` is less basic than `F_(3)C` : because fluorine can disperse charge only by an inductive effect while CI (having empty 3d orbitals) dispersos charge by inductive effect as well as by `ppi - ppi` bonding delocalisatioin. Fluorine is a second period element with no 2d orbital.
