Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (C), (B), (D), (A)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Molar mass \((\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}) = 2(12.01) + 4(1.008) + 2(16.00) = 60.052 \text{ g } mol^{-1} \approx 60 \text{ g } mol^{-1}\) Moles \((\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}) = \frac{2.5 \text{ g}}{60 \text{ g } mol^{-1}} = 0.04166... \text{ mol} \approx 0.0417 \text{ mol}\) Mass…
