Want this question answered?
The citric acid cycle is a cycle.
the Kreb's cycle (Citric Acid Cycle)
No, bicarb soda is another name for sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda. Citric acid is a completely different substance.
citrate is the salt or ester of citric acid, so basically no :(
Vinegar is not the same thing as citric acid; vinegar is acetic acid. Acetic acid and citric acid are both weak acids, but citric acid is slightly more acidic.
No, they are different compounds, but are in the same group(i.e. acids)
No. Citric acid is matter. Energy is that which allows change in matter in the form of heat and movement.
Concentration
i was thinking the same thing safe acid to use. i will try it
The formula of citric acid is C5H4O5, its gram molecular mass is 192.14, and the gram atomic mass of oxygen is 15.9994. Therefore, the fraction by mass of oxygen in citric acid is 5(15.9994)/192.14 or 0.4162 and the mass of oxygen in 20.2 units of citric acid is 0.4162(20.2) or 8.41 of the same units, to the justified number of significant digits.
What's happening is that the citric acid denatures some proteins. Heat also denatures proteins, so it's similar to cooking, but since no (or, at least, very very little) heat is involved, it's not exactly the same (it won't necessarily kill parasites or bacteria, for example, and only those portions that the citric acid penetrates to will be affected at all).
Yes, but not the same kind. Vinegar contains acetic acid and oranges citric acid.
