Answer is: True.

Example for polyhydroxyl alcohol is glycerol.
Glycerol (1,2,3-Propanetriol, glycerine or glycerin) is a simple polyol (it has three hydroxyl group) compound with formula (OH-CH₂-CH(OH)-CH₂OH or C₃H₈O₃).
The glycerine backbone is found in all lipids known as triglycerides. (ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids).
Glycerol is soluble in water and it is hygroscopic.

The pH of 0.10 M solution of an acid is 6. What is the percentage ionization of the acid?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Hey there!:

HA <=> H⁺ + A⁻

pH = -log[H+] = 6

[ H⁺ ] = 10^-pH

[ H⁺] = 10 ^ -6

[ H⁺ ] = 0.000001 M

Percent dissociation:

[ H⁺ ] / [ HA]o * 100

[ 0.000001 / 0.10 ] * 100

0.00001 * 100 => 0.0010%

Answer D

Hope that helps!
