Let us see the structure of ascorbic acid
As shown there is no COOH group however the OH group can lose a proton and forms conjugate base
The conjugate base formed is stabilized due to resonance
More the stability of conjugate base more the strength of acid
Hence ascorbic acid behaves as an acid
Answer:
The structures are shown in the figure.
Explanation:
The primary hydrogens are those which are attached to primary carbon.
Primary carbons are the carbons which are attached to only one carbon.
Primary carbons is bonded to three hydrogens.
In order to draw such structure we will draw structures which will have carbon with three hydrogens or no hydrogens (quaternary)
The structures are shown in the figure with clear marking.
Answer: (C) Vaporizing
Explanation:
Vaporization is the process in which the substance change the state of of liquid into the gas state.
The vaporization process require the largest input of the energy as when the state is in the solid state then, the solid substances contain the strong forces of the attraction and they require high energy to break these strong bonds.
For changing the liquid state into the gases state we require to overcome the surface tension and require enough energy for acquiring the vaporization state.
Therefore, option (C) is correct.
The mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. Since there are 16 neutrons, there are 14 protons. This also corresponds to the atomic number, so this atom's atomic number is 14 which is also Silicon
