List the bond lenghts between the carbon and the oxygen atoms for the carboxylic acid and carboxylate ion and rank from shortest to longest.
carboxylic acid
carboxylate ion
c-o c=o
provide an explanation for the differences in the bond lengths and the orientation of the dipole moment between the acid and ion.
Two compounds have the same molecular formula C2H2Br2 one has a dipole moment the other does not both compounds react with bromine Br2 to produce the same compounds this reaction is a general accepted test for double bonds and each bromine atom of Br2 adds to a different atom of the double bond what is the identity of the original compounds dascribe the argument you use
Phenol, C6H5OH, methanol, and CH3OH both have O-H groups, but phenol is a stronger acid. Draw the structure of the anion produced by removing H+ from each compound and explain the difference in acidity using the resonance structure.

Oxygen, for example, has two allotropes on earth: O2 and O3.) The all-nitrogen compound only lasts a short while before breaking down to N2. The compound cannot be isolated, so its structure is not yet confirmed experimentally; we can only hypothesize what its bonding and shape are. This allotrope is generally believed to be either a single ring of four nitrogens or a single chain of four nitrogens. 2. Assign formal charges to each atom in both structures.
