Arrange the bases HS , F , I , NH2 in order of increasing proton affinity 2. Thermally most stable: PH4Cl, PH4Br, PH4I 3. Most acidic oxide: Ag2O, V2O5, CO Soft and Hard Acid Base Principle • Ralph G. Pearson (1963) proposed the principle, abbreviated as SHAB. The complex A:B is most stable when A and B are either both soft or both hard. The complex is least stable when one of the reactants is very hard and the other is very soft. A + B → A:B Lewis acid Lewis base adduct (Acceptor) (donor) Hard base: hard to oxidise Characteristics: High electronegativity/ low polarisibility/presence of filled orbitals Hard acids: Difficult or hard to polarise.

They proposed a two parameter equation which predicts the formation of a very large number of adducts quite accurately. -∆HAB=EA.EB + CA.CB Here, ∆HAB is the enthalpy of the reaction A+B →AB in the gas phase or in an inert solvent. E and C are parameters calculated from experimental data. E is a measure of the capacity for electrostatic(ionic) interactions and C is a measure of the tendency to form covalent bonds. The subscripts refer to values assigned to the acid A and Base B.
