questions: a. Draw the best Lewis structure for the CH3COOH (acetic acid) molecule. (Hint: the acidic H is bonded to 0 in an oxy-acid molecule). Evaluate each atom using formal charge to prove you have the best structure. Show your math work as well as your formal charge answers.
b. Draw all the resonance structures for the CH3COO-(acetate ion). (Hint: make sure you have the best initial structure first!) c. What type of compound is acetic acid/vinegar (polar or non-polar)? d. What type(s) of intermolecular forces are present in acetic acid/vinegar?
e. The structure of oil is primarily non-polar. What type(s) of intermolecular force(s) is/are present in oil? f. Explain why oil and vinegar do not mix but rather form two separate layers. g. Identify the number of x bonds in the structure of acetic acid. h. Identify the number of o bonds in the structure of acetic acid. i. 25.00 mL of a 1.75 M solution of acetic acid is diluted to 350.00 mL. What is the resulting concentration in Molarity) of the new solution?
3. Vinegar is a dilute solution of acetic acid (CH3COOH). Oil and vinegar form two separate layers do not dissolve in one another). Explain why this occurs. In forming your explanation, be sure to address the following 3. Vinegar is a dilute solution of acetic acid (CH3COOH). Oil and vinegar form two separate layers do not dissolve in on
