because it will form solid when cool


Why is benzoic acid is in molecular form at pH of 2?

Benzoic acid is a weak acid, which means that its dissociation is reversible. C6H5COOH -----> C6H5COO- + H+ At pH 2, there are a lot of H+ ions in the solution. According to Le Chatelier's Principle, the equilibrium will shift to the left to favor the opposite reaction where Benzoic acid is produced, to reduce the amount of H+ in the solution. Therefore, an insignificant amount of benzoic acid will dissociate, while most of it remains in the molecular form.


Why is the sodium benzoate easily extracted into H20 while the original benzoic acid is not easily extracted into H20?

Because sodium benzoate is a salt and is soluble in water while benzoic acid is insoluble.


Why 4 hydroxy benzoic acid is less acidic than 2 hydroxy benzoic acid?

as because in 2-hydroxy benzoic acid, there is a possibility of H-bonding which makes the dissociated ion stable and will not combine with H+ ion leaving it free, while it is not so in case of 4-hydroxy benzoic acid.


Does benzoic acid have an odor?
