Before it is released it as potential energy and after it has been released it transforms into kinetic energy.
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
Comparing the matter that makes up its different parts.
Hope this helps! ;)
1. its temperature will rise continuously until it melts
I don't believe that any of the other answers are correct because it can not stay at a certain temperature if it is melting
A) Head to tail joining of monomers. :) (confirmed correct answer, I took the test)
