After the benzoate ion is separated from methyl benzoate because of their differences in solubility, what happens when HCI is added to the benzoate ion dissolved in water? OHCI donates a proton to the benzoate ion, resulting in benzoic acid, which is not soluble in water HCI accepts a proton from the benzoate ion, resulting in benzoic acid, which is not soluble in water HCI donates a proton to the benzoate ion, resulting in benzoic acid, which is soluble in water OHCI accepts a proton from the benzoate ion, resulting in benzoic acid, which is soluble in water
