Write the values of Y and X. H2SO4 CH;CH=CH2 + H2O CH3CH-CH2 H HỌ 2-propanol an alcohol The pKa of a protonated alcohol is about-2.5, and the pK, of an alcohol is about 15. Therefore, as long as the pH of the solution is greater than Y and less than X, more than 50% of 2-propanol will be in its neutral, nonprotonated form. Express your answers using two significant figures separated by a comma.
