Q. The strongest Bronsted base is

Jharkhand CECEJharkhand CECE 2010

Solution:

Strongest Bronsted base is that which has weakest conjugate acid. Base Conjugate acid $ (base\,+{{H}^{+}}) $ Base Conjugate acid $ (base\,+{{H}^{+}}) $ $ Cl{{O}^{-}} $ $ HClO $ $ ClO_{2}^{-} $ $ HCl{{O}_{2}} $ $ ClO_{3}^{-} $ $ HCl{{O}_{3}} $ $ ClO_{4}^{-} $ $ HCl{{O}_{4}} $ $ \because $ $ \text{HClO} $ is weak conjugate acid. $ \therefore $ $ \text{Cl}{{\text{O}}^{-}} $ is strongest Bronsted base.
