O Acetic acid is more soluble in water than pentanoic ackd because acetic acid is smaller O Acetic acid and pentanoic acid have equal solubility in wator O Acetic acid is less soluble than pentanoic acid in water because acetic acid is smaller O Neither acetic acid nor pentanoic acid is soluble in water Wl

Explanation / Answer

acetic acid strucutre = CH3COOH

pentanoic acid = CH3CH2CH2CH2COOH

then, aceti caicd must be much more polar, and H-bonds are felt stronger than in pentanoic acid which will be less polar, and H-bonds will be felt less

from the list

a) TRUE

b) false, they have different solubilities

c) false, actually reverse is true

d) false

choose A
