AI Generated Solution

To determine how many of the given combinations of reactants will react less than 2% of the theoretically possible extent, we need to analyze each reaction based on the strength of the acids and bases involved. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Reaction A: CH₃COOH + H₂O** - **Analysis**: Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) is a weak acid. When it reacts with water, it partially ionizes to form CH₃COO⁻ and H₃O⁺. The ionization constant (Kₐ) for acetic acid is low, indicating that the extent of ionization is also low. - **Conclusion**: This reaction will react less than 2% of the theoretically possible extent. ...
