Answer:
            Option-C (Carboxylic Acid)

Explanation:
                   Vinegar is a solution made up of 95 % water and 5 % Acetic Acid. The structure of Acetic Acid is shown below. Acetic acid belongs to a class of organic compounds called as Caboxylic Acids. The functional group of carboxylic acid contain a carbonyl group bonded to hydroxyl group and an alkyl group (highlighted red in structure).
                    Due to acid nature of this class it can donate the proton bonded to oxygen atom next to carbonyl group and resulting in the formation of resonance stabilized carboxylate ion.

Other examples of Carboxylic acids are,

HCOOH     Formic Acid

CH₃-COOH     Acetic Acid

CH₃-CH₂-COOH     Propionic Acid

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-COOH     Butanoic Acid

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-COOH     Pentanoic Acid

An aqueous solution of sodium fluoride is slowly added to a water sample that contains barium ion (2.75×10-2M ) and calcium ion
Alona [7]

Answer : The remaining concentration of the first ion to precipitate when the second ion begins to precipitate is, 1.07\times 10^{-6}M

Explanation :

The dissociation of barium fluoride is written as:

BaF_2\rightleftharpoons Ba^{2+}+2F^-

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

K_{sp}=[Ba^{2+}][F^-]^2

As we know that at room temperature 25^oC the K_{sp} of barium fluoride is, 1\times 10^{-6}.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

1\times 10^{-6}=(2.75\times 10^{-2})\times [F^-]^2

[F^-]=6.03\times 10^{-3}M=0.00603M

The barium fluoride precipitate when fluoride ion is equal to 0.00603 M.

The dissociation of calcium fluoride is written as:

CaF_2\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2F^-

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][F^-]^2

As we know that at room temperature 25^oC the K_{sp} of calcium fluoride is, 3.90\times 10^{-11}.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

3.90\times 10^{-11}=(6.70\times 10^{-2})\times [F^-]^2

[F^-]=2.41\times 10^{-5}M=0.0000241M

The calcium fluoride precipitate when fluoride ion is equal to 0.0000241 M.

Since, the fluoride ion concentration in calcium fluoride is less then the fluoride ion concentration in barium fluoride. That means, calcium fluoride will precipitate first.

Thus, the concentration Ca^{2+} ion remaining at F^- concentration (0.00603 M) is calculated as:

K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][F^-]^2

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

3.90\times 10^{-11}=[Ca^{2+}]\times (0.00603)^2

[Ca^{2+}]=1.07\times 10^{-6}M

Therefore, the remaining concentration of the first ion to precipitate when the second ion begins to precipitate is, 1.07\times 10^{-6}M

A mixture of compounds containing diethylamine, phenol, ammonia, and acetic acid is separated using liquid-liquid extraction as
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

I would expect to extract the acetic acid.

Explanation:

In the first step, since we are adding a concentrated acid,<u> it will react with the bases present in the mixture (diethylamine and ammonia) </u><u>forming salts</u><u>, </u><u>which are soluble in water</u>. Therefore, after draining the aqueous layer, we will have phenol and acetic acid left in the organic layer.

In the second step, we are adding a diluted base, so it will react with a strong acid. This compound is acetic acid, and its salt will be present in the aqueous layer. Phenol will be left on the organic layer.
