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!

The inner diameter for a steel stack that exhausts 1,200 m3/min of gases at 1 atm and 400 k is 1.45 m
<h3>What is Stack Height ?</h3>Stack height means the distance from the ground-level elevation at the base of the stack to the crown of the stack.
If a stack arises from a building or other structure, the ground-level elevation of that building or structure will be used as the base elevation of the stack.
Given is a steel stack that exhausts 1,200 cu.m/min of gases
P= 1 atm and
T= 400 K
maximum expected wind speed at stack height of 12 m/s
The formula for the diameter of chimney
Q =1200 cu.m/min
= 1200 * 0.0166 = 19.92 cu.m/sec
Velocity = 12m/s
d= 1.45 m
Therefore The inner diameter for a steel stack that exhausts 1,200 m3/min of gases at 1 atm and 400 k is 1.45 m.
