(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structures of poly (vinyl acetate) and poly (vinyl alcohol) are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The poly (vinyl acetate) and poly (vinyl alcohol) are examples of addition polymers. These polymers are made, when some alkenes undergo chain growth polymerization by some initiator.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An explanation to predict that the poly (vinyl acetate) is polyester as vinyl acetate is an ester is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The poly (vinyl acetate) and poly (vinyl alcohol) are examples of addition polymers. These polymers are made, when some alkenes undergo chain growth polymerization by some initiator.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An explanation corresponding to the given statement that hydrolysis does not destroy the poly (vinyl alcohol) polymer is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The poly (vinyl acetate) and poly (vinyl alcohol) are examples of addition polymers. These polymers are made, when some alkenes undergo chain growth polymerization by some initiator.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An explanation corresponding to the given statement that the poly (vinyl alcohol) is made by given circuitous route rather than the polymerisation of vinyl alcohol is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The poly (vinyl acetate) and poly (vinyl alcohol) are examples of addition polymers. The poly (vinyl acetate) is converted to poly (vinyl alcohol) by a basic hydrolysis of the ester groups.

Please help me with # 4 and 5. Thanks in advance!
A small artisanal cheesemaker is testing the acidity of their milk before it coagulates. During fermentation, bacteria produce lactic acid (K₁ = 1.4 x 104), a weak acid that helps to curdle the milk and develop flavor. The cheesemaker has measured that the developing mixture contains lactic acid at an initial concentration of 0.025 M. Your task is to calculate the pH of this mixture and determine whether it meets the required acidity for proper cheese development. To achieve the best flavor, texture and reduce/control microbial growth, the pH range needs to be between pH 4.6 and 5.0. Assumptions: Lactic acid is a monoprotic acid H H :0:0: H-C-C H :0: O-H Figure 1: Lewis Structure for Lactic Acid For simplicity, you can use the generic formula HA to represent the acid You can assume lactic acid dissociation is in water as milk is mostly water. Temperature is 25°C 1. Write the K, expression for the dissociation of lactic acid in the space provided. Do not forget to include state symbols.…
