Question

The strongest bronsted base among the following anions is (A) ClO 3- (B) ClO - (C) ClO 4- (D) ClO 2-

Strongest acid among HClO 4, HClO 3, HClO 2 and HClO is HClO 4 (due to greater no. of attached O- atoms) and weakest is HClO. But the corresponding conjugate base of HClO i.e. ClO - is the strongest Bronsted base.

Q. The strongest bronsted base among the following anions is

$Cl O_{3}^{-}$

$Cl O^{-}$

$Cl O_{4}^{-}$

$Cl O_{2}^{-}$

Strongest acid among $H Cl O_{4}, H Cl O_{3}, H Cl O_{2}$ and $H ClO$ is $H Cl O_{4}$ (due to greater no. of attached $O -$ atoms) and weakest is $H ClO$ . But the corresponding conjugate base of $H ClO$ i.e. $Cl O^{-}$ is the strongest Bronsted base.

Q. The strongest bronsted base among the following anions is

ClO3−​

ClO−

ClO4−​

ClO2−​

Strongest acid among HClO4​,HClO3​,HClO2​ and HClO is HClO4​ (due to greater no. of attached O− atoms) and weakest is HClO. But the corresponding conjugate base of HClO i.e. ClO− is the strongest Bronsted base.

$Cl O_{3}^{-}$

$Cl O^{-}$

$Cl O_{4}^{-}$

$Cl O_{2}^{-}$

Strongest acid among $H Cl O_{4}, H Cl O_{3}, H Cl O_{2}$ and $H ClO$ is $H Cl O_{4}$ (due to greater no. of attached $O -$ atoms) and weakest is $H ClO$ . But the corresponding conjugate base of $H ClO$ i.e. $Cl O^{-}$ is the strongest Bronsted base.
