Acetic acid tends to form dimer due to formation of intermolcular hydrogen bonding. `2CH_(2)COOHhArr(CH_(3)COOH)_(2)` The equilibrium constant for this reaction is `1.5xx10^(2)M^(-1)`in benzene solution and `3.6xx10^(-2)` in water. In benzene, monomer does not dissociate but it water, monomer dissociation simultaneously with acid dissociation constant `2.0xx10^(-5)`M. Dimer does not dissociate in benzene as well as water. The molar ration of dimer to monomer for 0.1 M acetic acid in benzene is equal to :A. `150:1`B. `1:150`C. `5:2`D. `2:5` |
