Answer:
65)
Which hydrogens are more acidic, those of benzene or those of cyclohexane? Why?
Answer:
Benzene. The carbon hybridization of benzene is sp2 while that of cyclohexane is sp3. The more s character in benzene
causes its hydrogens to be more acidic than those of cyclohexane.
Section: 5.13

Why are terminal alkynes more acidic than other hydrocarbons?
Answer:
The carbanion which results upon deprotonation of a terminal alkyne has the lone pair of electrons in an sp hybridized
orbital. The greater % s character of this orbital gives the orbital a significantly lower energy.
