Answer:

The correct answer is D sp2 and sp3

Explanation:

Acetic acid is a weak acid containg 2 carbon atoms.the first carbon is joined to 3 hydrogen atoms by 3 covalent bonds and to the second carbo atom by one covalent bond.Therefore the first carbon of CH3COOH is sp3 hybridized.

Whereas the second carbon is joined to the first carbon by a covalent bond,the second carbon form a double bond with oxygen and thesecond carbon forms a covalent bond with the oxygen atom of -OH group of COOH moiety.Therefore the second carbon is sp2 hybridized.

The pressure exerted by a gas in a container depends on what?

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

From gas laws (pressure law and Boyles law), the pressure exerted by a gas depends on Temperature of the gas and volume of the container.

Explanation:

${ \boxed{ \rm{P \: \alpha \: \frac{T}{V} }}}$

• P → Pressure exerted by the gas.

• T → Temperature of the gas.

• V → Volume of the container.

• from the expression, pressure exerted by the gas is directly proportional to temperature of the gas and inversely proportional to the volume of the container.
