The pka value for the carboxylic acid group in acetic acid is 4.75. write the predominant structure of acetic acid at (a ph=1, (
b ph=7
1 answer:
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 CH₃COOH
CH₃COOH ⇄ 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!

Answer:
a) Volume of vial= 9.626cm3
b) Mass of vial with water = 62.92 g
Explanation:
a) Mass of empty vial = 55.32 g
Mass of Vial + Hg = 185.56 g
Therefore,
Density of Hg = 13.53 g/cm3
b) Volume of water = volume of vial = 9.626 cm3
Density of water = 0.997 g/cm3
