Question
Decide whether each of the molecules in the table below is stable, in the exact form in which it is drawn, at pH = 1.
If you decide at least one molecule is not stable, then redraw one of the unstable molecules in its stable form below the table. (If more than one molecule is unstable, you can pick any of them to redraw.)
Please include an explanation as to why the molecule is stable or unstable. Then include a drawing of one of the unstable molecules in its stable form at a pH of 1.
