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:
Answers are explained below
Explanation:
(a)
Oxidation number of iron :
FeO = +2
Fe2O3= +3
Fe3O4 = +2 and +3 since Fe3O4 is the mixture of FeO and Fe2O3.
(b) FeO + CO ----> Fe (s) + CO2
(c) In a pure iron metallic bond is exist between the particles of Fe. But in the form of ore metals forms ionic bond with the non-metals.
Hence the properties vary.
Yes carbon steel has greater strength than that of pure iron but retains the property of iron because no chemical reaction occurs between carbon and iron.
d)
Mixing of carbon in iron is a type of physical change since there is no chemical reactions occur between the carbon and iron. Carbon atoms diffuses in the place between the iron atoms.
(f) One of the property of non-metals are brittleness. It is non ductile .
So when the percentage of carbon increases its atoms also occupying more and more free places.
And increasing the brittleness. So the iron becomes less ductile.
e)
