C2H4O2

Acetic acid, an organic acid because of it's carbon, but more importantly because of the carbon-hydrogen structure.

HCl

Hydrochloric acid, an inorganic acid and no carbon for a strong distinction.

Why segregate inorganic acids from organic acids?

Segregating inorganic acids from organic acids is important because they have different properties and behaviors. Inorganic acids generally have more reactive and corrosive properties compared to organic acids, so separating them helps minimize the risk of unwanted reactions or hazards. Additionally, separating them can also make handling and disposal processes more efficient and safer.

How do the strengths of organic acids compare with the strengths of most inorganic acids?

Acids, like all chemical compounds, are classified as either organic or inorganic. Organic acids occur in, or can be produced from, animal and vegetable matter. In addition to hydrogen, organic acids always contain carbon and at least one other element. The strength of each acid depends on the type. There are many different acids with a large variety of strengths.

Is C02 organic or inorganic?

Inorganic if you use the definition organic contains carbon and hydrogen. Organic if your definition is simply contains carbon. There is no clear and agreed definition of the distinction between organic and inorganic. Historically chemists believed an "organic compound" required a life process to produce it.

What are the two kinds of weak acids?

The two kinds of weak acids are organic weak acids, which contain carbon atoms, and inorganic weak acids, which do not contain carbon atoms. Organic weak acids include acetic acid and citric acid, while inorganic weak acids include hydrofluoric acid and hydrogen sulfide.


Do organic and inorganic acids react?

Yes, organic and inorganic acids can react with each other. The reaction will depend on the specific acids involved and their chemical properties, but generally, they can form salts or other products through acid-base reactions.
