arnt we talking about charge density
what does that have to do with acid or base
its just how much charge is in how much volume
Same thing dude :)
better base is something that has a high charge density
revise the basics once na goc ke

Nucleophilicity vs. Basicity
What is the difference between basicity and nucleophilicity? Basicity measures a reversible equilibrium, whereas nucleophilicity measures a rate.
ah ic
still like flurine is jsut flourine
with -ve and lone pairs
shouldnt it have the highest charge density? it is electronegetive so it wone be a good base but still should have high charge density
are!
xD
abhi toh bataya
both are related bhai
you are stuck in the grade 10 wala scene where they say F is small high charge density
that is cool
but
start seeing stuff with data now
using equilibrium ideas
ye
everything is strong weak relative to something else
what
ye suna?
HF weak acid, F- decent base
CH4 weakest acid among given ones
CH3- strongest base
ta daa
equilibrium ke ideas
oh
ic so strong base = more charge density as it is able give electrons
read this
it is not one or the other.
higher charge density could imply stronger base
but not the other way around as there are many factors that make a strong abse
this is why i shared this article :)
oh ic
