Here are the IUPAC names for the given carboxylic acids and the explanation for the pKa values.

1. Supply the IUPAC names of the following acids.

*a) CH3(CH2)4CO2H\text{CH}_3\text{(CH}_2)_4\text{CO}_2\text{H}
This is a straight-chain carboxylic acid with 6 carbon atoms (1 from CH3\text{CH}_3, 4 from (CH2)4\text{(CH}_2)_4, and 1 from CO2H\text{CO}_2\text{H}).

  1. Identify the longest carbon chain containing the carboxyl group.

    This chain has 6 carbons.

  2. Name the parent alkane (hexane) and replace the "-e" with "-o
