Physiological pH in humans is pH = 7.3. At this pH, would cellular carboxylic acid citric acid (Kal 7.08 x 104) exist primarily as the undissociated free acid or as its dissociated carboxylate form? From the choices provided below, indicate whether the carboxylic acid will exist primarily in its protonated form as a Free Acid or in its deprotonated form as a Carboxylate Anion by clicking on the corresponding button. At equilibrium in this pH, the concentration of the preferred form of the acid is approximately | times higher than the concentration of its conjugate form. Round to the nearest order of magnitude.
