What kind of reaction -SN1 or SN2 or E1 or E2- is expected for secondary haloalkanes with sterically hindered strong bases?
the mostly undergo SN1 or E1.. but ratio of E1 is higher...
What is the lowest pH to the highest pH?
Lowest pH, strong acids, then weak acids, then salts of strong acids and strong bases, then salts of weak acids and strong bases, then weak bases, then strong bases. All very confusing!
What correctly describes the corrosive nature of strong acids and strong bases?
Strong acids and strong bases are both usually corrosive.
Are strong bases sparingly soluble?
No, strong acids and bases are very soluble (will dissociate completely).
Weak bases are what in water?
Weak bases are soluble in water where as strong bases like KOH tend to heat up faster . Hence, strong bases are insoluble in water.

Can every strong electrolyte be considered a strong acid?
No. Many strong electrolytes are bases or neutral salts.
What correctly describes the corrosive nature of strong acids and strong bases?
Strong acids and strong bases are both usually corrosive.
Can bases be strong or weak?
Yes. There are strong bases such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and weak bases such as ammonia (NH3)
Are strong bases sparingly soluble?
No, strong acids and bases are very soluble (will dissociate completely).
Weak bases are what in water?
Weak bases are soluble in water where as strong bases like KOH tend to heat up faster . Hence, strong bases are insoluble in water.
What are strong bases nh3 naoh baoh2 and hf?
naoh and baoh2 are both strong bases. bases end with an OH and acids start with an H.
How do strong and weak bases dissociate or ionize?
Strong bases dissociate or ionize completely. Weak bases dissociate or ionize only partially. The degree to which they ionize/dissociate is given by the Kb for each weak base.
What is generally true about strong bases and strong acids?
They are neutral
Do strong bases have a pH below 7?
No. Strong bases wold have a pH above 8 or 9. A pH of 13 would be a very strong base.
How are strong acids converted to weaker ones?
Buffer systems. They convert strong acids or bases into weak acids or bases.
