The molecular formula of butane is C4H10. It is obtained from petroleum and is used commonly in LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) cy
linders (a common source of cooking gas). It has two arrangements of carbon atoms: a straight chain and a branched chain. Using this information, draw the structure of the tertiary butyl radical that will form upon removal of a hydrogen atom. Draw the molecule on the canvas by choosing buttons from the Tools (for bonds), Atoms, and Advanced Template toolbars. Include all free radicals by right-clicking on an atom on the canvas and then using the Atom properties to select the monovalent radical.

Answer:
- Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and hydronium ion (H₃O⁺)
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, based on the acid-base theory which states that acids are known as H⁺ donors, if we consider the direct reaction:
It is clear that the acetic acid is the first H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into the acetate ion. Moreover, if we consider the inverse reaction:
It is also clear that the hydronium ion is the second H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into water.
Best regards.
