Hello!
A) At pH=1
This pH is lower than the value for the pKa, so Acetic acid wouldn't be ionized, but the equilibrium would be displaced to
CH₃COOHCH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺ (equilibrium displaced to the
left)
The chemical structure for CH₃COOH is the first one in the attached images.
B) At pH=7
This pH is higher than the value for the pKa, so Acetic acid would be ionized, and the equilibrium would be displaced to
CH₃COO⁻
CH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺ (equilibrium displaced to the
right)
The chemical structure for CH₃COO⁻ is the second one in the attached images.
Have a nice day!
I can’t really understand your question sorry
The correct answer is A. A test tube of zinc oxide. Zinc oxide is a compound which is a pure substance composed of two or more elements. They can only be separated or broken down into its individual elements or smaller compounds by chemical means. Therefore, the answer is a test tube of zinc oxide.
