7. Acids F and G have pKa values of 4.2 and -3.3 respectively. (i) Which acid is more acidic? Explain. (ii) Upon reaction with a base, which of these two acids would form a salt with pH > 7? Explain. 8. Between phosphine (PH3) and ammonia (NH3), which one would you expect to be a stronger acid? Explain. 9. When the following compounds are mixed, an acid-base reaction is expected. Predict the products of such a reaction in each case. (pKa (H2O) = 15.7; pKa (PH3) = 27) (i) PH3 + H2S (ii) PH3 + H2O 2
