What else can I help you with?
Is ch3cooh acidic or basic?
Acetic acid (CH3COOH) is acidic because it donates a proton (H+) in solution. The presence of this proton gives acetic acid acidic properties.
How many titratable protons are in ch3cooh?
There is one titratable proton in acetic acid (CH3COOH). It is the proton on the carboxyl group that can be donated in an acid-base reaction during titration.
How many protons can be lost by acetic acid HC2H3O2?
Malonic acid has pKa values of 2.83 (pK1) and 5.69 (pK2). If malonic esters are used then on treatment with a strong base like sodium ethoxide, the methylene (-CH2-) hydrogen can be deprotonated, but I am not sure if that is possible for malonic acid as that will lead to a tri-anion.
Why is acetic acid more acidic than phenol?
The two resonating structure of the anion formed after acetic acid gives up a proton are equivalent, and the negative charge rests on oxygen which is an electronegative element. But in case of phenoxide ion, the resonating structures are not equivalent, and negative charge rests on carbon which is an electropositive atom.
Which of the following is an example of a conjugate acid-base pair?
H2S and HS-
To which point group does acetic acid belong?
Acetic acid belongs to the C1 point group.
Why benzoic acid is comaritively weaker acid than acetic acid?
Because acetic acid have methyl group ,a electron donating group
What functional group does acetic acid belong?
Acetic acid belongs to the functional group of carboxylic acids.
What is anion of acetic acid?
The anion of acetic acid is called acetate ion. It is formed when acetic acid loses a proton (H+) and becomes negatively charged. The chemical formula for acetate ion is CH3COO-.
Why acetic acid is weaker than iodoacetic acid?
Iodoacetic acid is stronger than acetic acid because the presence of the electron-withdrawing iodine atom in iodoacetic acid stabilizes the conjugate base through inductive effects, making it more acidic compared to acetic acid. The iodine atom withdraws electron density from the carboxylic acid group, making it easier to donate a proton, resulting in a lower pKa value for iodoacetic acid.
What is more stronger acetic acid or ethanol?
Acetic acid is a stronger acid. Ethanol is an alcohol which is slightly acidic but usually neutral in nature.
Is a vinegar a acid or a base?
Vinegar is dilute acetic acid, which is an acid.
