What else can I help you with?
How can you categorize the acids based on the number of acidic protons they contain?
Acids can be categorized based on the number of acidic protons they contain. Acids with one acidic proton are called monoprotic acids, those with two acidic protons are called diprotic acids, and those with three acidic protons are called triprotic acids.
What are acidic things?
stomach lining, glass beakers, other acids
Why rancid oil acidic?
Rancid oil becomes acidic due to the breakdown of fatty acids in the oil, which releases free fatty acids. These free fatty acids react with oxygen in the air to form peroxides and other compounds that lower the pH of the oil, making it acidic.
Why might fatty acids amino acids and nucleic acids increase the hydrogen ions concentration of a solution?
Fatty acids, amino acids, and nucleic acids can increase the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution when they undergo metabolic processes that produce acidic byproducts. For example, the breakdown of fatty acids can release acidic ketone bodies, amino acid metabolism can lead to the formation of acidic products like sulfuric acid, and nucleic acid metabolism can release phosphoric acid. These acidic byproducts can contribute to an increase in hydrogen ions in the solution.
Are most household products acids or alkalines?
Acids. And bases. Vetting from lemon juice to soap. Acids are sour. Bases are bitter and slippery.
Are fruits acidic in nature?
Yes, some fruits are acidic in nature due to their high content of citric acid or other acids.
What part of an acids chemical formula is responsible for its acidic properties?
Hydrogen ions give acids their acidic properties.
Do vitamins have any acid in them?
Vitamins themselves are not acids, but some vitamins can have acidic forms. For example, ascorbic acid is the acidic form of vitamin C. Other vitamins may have similar structures but are not inherently acidic. Overall, while certain vitamins can be associated with acidic compounds, vitamins as a whole are not classified as acids.
What in milk products neutralizes acids?
Actually, milk is slightly acidic (e.g. lactic acid), in fact milk adds to acidity slightly.
what is the correct order of acidic strength?
The correct order of acidic strength is as follows: strong acids > weak acids > organic acids. Strong acids completely dissociate in water to release H+ ions, making them the most acidic. Weak acids partially dissociate in water, while organic acids generally have a carboxylic acid group and are typically weaker acids.
Are proteins acids?
hi dear.....! we cant say that proteins are always acidic. it depends on the kind of amino acids they are made up of. if it contains more acidic aminoacids , then it is acidic.
Is lard acidic or basic?
lard is made of fatty ACIDS. So... acidic.
