[Na][NH2] + H2O NH3 + [Na][OH]. Water and alcohols are similar as Bronsted acids and they also have similar acid dissociation constants. The conjugate base of an alcohol is called an alkoxide. Above we see the dissociation of methanol to a solvated proton and the conjugate base methoxide.he hydrogen is a little less electronegative than the carbon so a C-H bond is slightly polarized with more electron density on carbon. Excess electron density on a carbon adjacent to a negatively charged oxygen atom (in the alkoxide) destabilizes the conjugate base and makes the acid a little weaker.
Conventional treatment of kennel cough in dogs depends on the severity of the infection. For mild cases of kennel cough, antibiotics may or may not be administered. If administered, the drugs of choice are the tetracyclines and trimethoprimsulfa and the antibiotics are continued for 7 to 10 days. In addition, cough suppressants may also be used to treat mild cases.
C5 â For kennel bound dogs, ask for the C5 vaccine. This vaccine will help protect the canine from kennel cough, distemper, parvovirus, parainfluenza and hepatitis. If the dogâs vaccinations have lapsed or if the canine has never been vaccinated before, a booster shot is also required.4 â This type of core vaccine can protect dogs against the parvovirus, hepatitis and distemper. It can also provide protection against the parainfluenza virus, one of the causes of kennel cough. In some cases, dog boarding facilities will allow dogs to be boarded as long as they have been injected with this vaccine.
