11. Consider the pKa values (for the bolded H) in the structures below.
HO
HO,
pKa = ~10
pKa = ~17
pKa = ~4
%3D
%3D
%3D
Explain these differences in the pka values. (Hint: Draw each molecule if it was deprotonated.
The more stable the deprotonated structure is means it is easier to deprotonate, and therefore
the more acidic (lower pKa) the molecule! Consider resonance structures for the deprotonated
structures to help explain the differences in pKa.
