Chapter 3, Problem 3.52AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure of ascorbic acid as it exists at the physiological pH (pH =7.4) is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The pKa of the acid describes the pH at which the acid will be found in the protonated form or dissociated form. The acid is found in dissociated form in the pH range equal to pKa1 to pKa+1.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The resonance structures of the structure of ascorbic acid as it exists at the physiological pH (pH =7.4) using curved-arrow notation are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Resonance is the phenomena of the delocalization of pi electrons to give extra stability to the molecule. This extra stability comes from the distribution of the energy of the molecule in the resonance structures formed.

what temperature does a 50% (mole fraction) of ammonia/water liquid mixture boil at 1 atm
1) Suppose 0.1 kg ice at 0°C (273K) is in 0.5kg water at 20°C (293K). What is the change in entropy of the ice as it melts at 0°?    To produce the original "water gas" mixture, carbon (in a combustible form known as coke) is reacted with steam: 131.4 kJ + H20(g) + C(s) → CO(g) + H2(g) From this information and the equations in the previous problem, calculate the enthalpy for the combustion or carbon to form carbon dioxide.   kindly show me how to solve both parts of the same  long problem. Thanks
