The most acidic compound is methyl alcohol?
No, methyl alcohol is generally not viewed as an acid at all.
What functional group is present in methyl stearate?
Its functional group is carboxylic acid i.e. COOH. Having chemical formula C17H35COOCH3 Colorless crystals melting at 39°C; soluble in alcohol and ether, insoluble in water; used as an intermediate for stearic acid manufacture.
Why Oxalic acid is stonger than malonic acid?
A strong acid has a stabilized conjugate base. Oxalic acid is stronger than malonic acid because its conjugate base has much more resonance structures than malonic acid's conjugate base.
What carboxylic acid would decarboxylate by heating?
A classic example of a carboxylic acid decarboxylation occurs in the malonic ester synthesis. The malonic ester synthesis is a chemical reaction where diethyl malonate or another ester of malonic acid is alkylated at the carbon alpha (directly adjacent) to both carbonyl groups, and then converted to a substituted acetic acid. Malonic acid is another example of an acid that will decarboxylate when heated (not sure at what temperature this happens, though)The structure of malonic acid is HOOC-CH2-COOH.
Is malonic acid a diprotic acid?
Yes, it is diprotic, HOOC-CH2-COOH

Is Butyl Alcohol a reactants used to make methyl butyrate?
the reactants are methanol and butyric acid
Why Oxalic acid is stonger than malonic acid?
A strong acid has a stabilized conjugate base. Oxalic acid is stronger than malonic acid because its conjugate base has much more resonance structures than malonic acid's conjugate base.
What alcohol and acid is Isopentyl Isovalerate made of?
It's made from butanoic acid (the acid component) and 3-methyl butanol (the alcohol component).
Is Methylparaben an alcohol derivitive?
No, it is the methyl ester of p-hydroxybenzoic acid.

Is oleic acid soluble in ethyl alcohol?
Yes
What is Malonic acids role with respect to succinate dehydrogenase?
Malonic acid is a competitive inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase.
Is malonic acid a diprotic acid?
Yes, it is diprotic, HOOC-CH2-COOH
Methyl alcohol and pure acetic acid mixed?
they do mix but there is no reaction unless a catalist like sulfuric acid were used
What ester is produced from salicylic acid and methyl alcohol?
Organic acids and alcohols are reacted (in the presence of a dehydrating agent) to produce esters. And these substances are often recognized by their characteristic odors. In the case here, salicylic acid and methyl alcohol yield methyl salicylate, which is winter-green.
