Which of the following compounds is the strongest acid?
Acidity of $\text{CHX}_3$ compounds depends on the electron-withdrawing ability of the substituents X, which stabilize the conjugate base carbanion $\text{CX}_3^-$.
- CN is an extremely strong electron-withdrawing group (by both induction and resonance).
- $\text{CH(CN)}_3$ has three CN groups, creating maximum negative charge delocalization on the carbanion β giving the most stable conjugate base.
- Halogens: electronegativity order is F > Cl > Br > I, so CHCl$_3$ > CHBr$_3$ > CHI$_3$ in acidity.
Overall: CH(CN)$_3$ is the strongest acid due to the powerful electron-withdrawing CN groups.
Total cost data: 600 units = $4,200; 800 units = $5,200. What is the fixed cost per unit at each level?
| Option | For 600 units ($) | For 800 units ($) |
|---|---|---|
| A | 2.00 | 1.50 |
| B | 2.00 | 2.00 |
| C | 5.00 | 5.00 |
| D | 6.50 | 7.00 |
Option A is correct.
Variable cost per unit = ($5,200 − $4,200) ÷ 200 = $5
Fixed costs = $4,200 − (600 × $5) = $1,200
At 600 units: $1,200 ÷ 600 = $2.00; At 800 units: $1,200 ÷ 800 = $1.50
