Is a sodium fatty acid salt the same as a carboxylic acid salt?
A fatty acid salt is a kind of carboxylic acid salt. But not all carboxylic acid salts are fatty acid salts.
What is the equation for the reaction of the salt of the carboxylic acid with HCl?
What is the equation for the reaction of the salt of the carboxylic acid with HCl?
What is the Reaction with carboxylic acid and metal acids?
When carboxylic acid react with metal gives Salt and hydrogen
Why is it difficult to use soap in an acid solution?
Soap is a salt of carboxylic acid (fatty acid) in acidic medium soap forms the corresponding fatty acid which is almost insoluble in water so soap does not work properly.
Why does the alkali-catalysed hydrolysis of an ester produce a sodium salt rather than a carboxylic acid?
An acid can not survive in a basic medium. CH3-COOH + NaOH -------> CH3-COONa + H2O
Does potassium oxide react with a carboxylic acid?
Yes, they react tor form water and the corresponding potassium carboxylate salt.
Is a sodium fatty acid salt the same as a carboxylic acid salt?
A fatty acid salt is a kind of carboxylic acid salt. But not all carboxylic acid salts are fatty acid salts.
What are the products of an ester and water?
An alcohol and a carboxylic acid salt (carboxylic acid if protonated at end of reaction).
What is the equation for the reaction of the salt of the carboxylic acid with HCl?
What is the equation for the reaction of the salt of the carboxylic acid with HCl?
What is the Reaction with carboxylic acid and metal acids?
When carboxylic acid react with metal gives Salt and hydrogen
How can you make hydrocarbon?
A hydrocarbon such as an alkane can be made from a Kolbe electrolysis of the sodium salt of the carboxylic acid.
What is synthetic detergent made out?
sodium salt of benzene carboxylic acid
Is oleic acid soluble in sodium hydroxide?
Yes it is, oleic acid (18 carbon Chain carboxylic acid) will react with the Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) and produce a new metal salt carboxylic acid.
What is lactylate?
It is the sodium salt of an long chained carboxylic acid containing two eater linkages.
What is a bicinchoninate?
A bicinchoninate is any salt or ester of the quinoline carboxylic acid 2,2'-biquinoline-4,4-dicarboxylic acid; - the sodium salt of which is a colourimetric reagent used to detect proteins.
What are the products for the addition of a base and a carboxylic acid?
The products are acetate salt with metallic or Ammonium ion and water.
What carboxylic acid makes acetate salt?
A salt is an ionic compound formed by the neutralization of charge. Take a simple strong acid like HCl. When dissociated, it yields H+ and Cl-. If you introduce sodium (Na+), the Na+ will form an ionic bond with the Cl- to form NaCl (table salt). The positive charge on the Na and the negative on the Cl neutralized each other to form a neutral stable compound we call a salt. The same concept applies to any acid, including carboxylic acids. Take acetic acid (CH3COOH). It can dissociate into CH3COO- (acetate) and H+ giving the end oxygen a negative charge. Again, let's introduce Na+ to the system. The Na+ will form an ionic bond with the negatively charged oxygen on the acetate to form sodium acetate (CH3COONa). The formation of an ionic bond between Na and acetate balanced the charges, so we call this a salt as well. Since it was made from a carboxylic acid, we can call it a "carboxylic acid salt".
