At 50 degrees Celsius and standard pressure inter-molecular forces of attraction are strongest in a sample of ethanoic acid.
Ethanoic acid has hydrogen atom bonded with a more electronegative atom; Oxygen. As a result, the molecule possesses strong intermolecular Hydrogen Bonds. Therefore; ethanoic acid, and all other carboxyllic acids have the tendency to form dimers.
Answer:
[C₆H₅COO⁻][H₃O⁺]/[C₆H₅COOH] = Ka
Explanation:
The reaction of dissociation of the benzoic acid in water is given by the following equation:
C₆H₅-COOH + H₂O ⇄ C₆H₅-COO⁻ + H₃O⁺ (1)
The dissociation constant of an acid is the measure of the strength of an acid:
HA ⇄ A⁻ + H⁺ (2)
![K_{a} = \frac{[A^{-}][H^{+}]}{[HA]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20K_%7Ba%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BA%5E%7B-%7D%5D%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BHA%5D%7D%20)
(3)
<em>Where the dissociation constant of the acid (Ka) is equal to the ratio of the concentration of the dissociated forms of the acid, [A⁻][H⁺], and the concentration of the acid, [HA]. </em>
So, starting from the equations (2) and (3), the constant equation for the dissociation reaction of benzoic acid in water, of the equation (1), is:
![K_{a} = \frac{[C_{6}H_{5}COO^{-}][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[C_{6}H_{5}COOH]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20K_%7Ba%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BC_%7B6%7DH_%7B5%7DCOO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%5BH_%7B3%7DO%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BC_%7B6%7DH_%7B5%7DCOOH%5D%7D%20)

Scientists repeat experiments for reliability. Experiments have to be repeated, since performing an experiment only once, does not prove a scientists theory on the experiment, which they develop by performing the experiment. And then performing the experiment again or even many times to prove or disapprove their theories. Btw, before an experiment begins, the scientist will make a hypothesis of what they believe will happen. If proven correctly, they would then use those results they record throughout the experiment, from beginning to end to prove whether or not their hypothesis are correct or incorrect.
