Q. What is the primary factor that determines the acidity of a compound?
-
A.
Electronegativity
-
B.
Molecular weight
-
C.
Atomic radius
-
D.
Bond length
Solution
Electronegativity is the primary factor; higher electronegativity of the atom bonded to hydrogen increases acidity.
Correct Answer: A — Electronegativity
Q. Which of the following bonds is the most polar?
-
A.
C-H
-
B.
O-H
-
C.
N-H
-
D.
S-H
