Yes,it is.Mainly,due to its -OH group.But its solubility decreases with increase in alkyl groups or simply,the number of carbon atoms which appreciate the non-polar nature of a compound.
Carboxylic acid is not a single substance but a class of organic acids. Some carboxylic acids are soluble and some aren't
When an acid reacts with a base, water and a salt is formed. Salts are polar molecules, making them soluble in water.
Not, it is not soluble.
yes
These solutions are basic and can neutralize acids.
In water solutions salts may be acidic, basic or amphoteric.
Red color in acidic solutions and blue color in basic solutions.
Acidic solutions have a pH under 7.A neutral solution has a pH of 7.Basic solutions have a pH over 7.
Amino refers to the -NH2 group of atoms. Generally, organic acids have the carboxylic acid group -COOH. Thus, amino acids are compounds that have both the basic -NH2 & acidic -COOH groups.
Soaps contain sodium salts of weak carboxylic acids such as sodium stearate which show weakly alkaline behavior.
These solutions are basic and can neutralize acids.
In water solutions salts may be acidic, basic or amphoteric.
amino acids contain a basic amine group (NH2) and an acidic carboxylic acid group (CO2H)
Amino acids are said to be amphoteric because they both have a basic group (amine: NH2/NH3+) and an acid group (carboxylic acid The word is used to describe a chemical compound that may behave either as an acid or a base depending on the environment. As examples, zinc oxides and hydroxides behave as acids in alkaline solutions and bases in acidic solutions. Amino acids are amphoteric organic acids that contain the amine group, -NH2 and the carboxylic acid group -COOH. Amine groups are basic ( you could say they are a modified form of the ammonia molecule) and carboxylic acid groups are, let's see, acid. As an example of the amphoteric nature of an amino acid, we can look at Glycine, which is chemically, the simplest of the amino acids. Glycine has the formula H2NCH2COOH (C2H5NO2). In this case, Glycine has the amine group -NH2 (H2N) that is basic in nature on one section of the molecule, and the carboxylate group( -COOH) that is acidic in nature on another section. Both these groups are attached to the same carbon atom. COOH/COO-)
Amino Acids, as their name suggests, have a both an amine group (NH2) and a carboxylic (COOH) group. Amine groups are basic and when we treat them with strong acid (like your classic hydrochloric acid), we can protonate them to form NH3+. Carboxylic groups are acidic and when we treat them with strong base (like your classic sodium hydroxide) we can deprotonate them to form (COO-). Amino acids, because they contain both a basic amine group and an acidic carboxylic group, can act as either an acid or a base.

basic solutions have more bases in them, molecules that release 0H- ions in the solution. acidic solutions have more acids, molecules that give off H+ ions in the solution
