this year, he saw two large cracks in the boulder.
Which of the following most likely caused these cracks to form?
Shaking from high winds.
Pressure from flowing water.
Erosion due to falling rain and snow.

Answer: weathering due to freezing and thawing

Explanation:

The reason that caused these cracks to form is weathering due to freezing and thawing.

Weathering simply means the breaking down of rocks. In this situation, the boulder is freezed and thawed and due to this, as time progresses, it'll gradually be broken down. This is the reason why Mike saw the cracks even though there were no cracks the last time he went hiking.

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, (
Scorpion4ik [409]
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!
