Yes, malic acid is soluble in water.
There are two different structures of malic acid, an L-isomer and a D-isomer. These two molecules are identical like your left and right hands. While they have the same atoms and bonds, they are not necessarily interchangeable, just as you cannot fit your left hand in a right hand-shaped hole. L-Malic acid is produced naturally in fruits. 90% of the acid in apples is malic acid. When malic acid is produced synthetically, a mixture of the two isomers is obtained which is called DL-malic acid (because it contains both D- and L-malic acid). When you eat DL-malic acid, your body digests the L-malic acid normally (it is part of the Kreb's cycle), but the D-malic acid is excreted in the urine. A 1967 study by the WHO shows evidence that D-malic acid is toxic and causes renal damage. When purchasing malic acid, if it is called "malic acid" it is likely DL-malic acid. If the natural form is desired, purchase specifically L-malic acid.
Yes, acetic acid is soluble in water.
Yes, carbonic acid is soluble in water.
Yes, folic acid is soluble in water. It is a water-soluble vitamin and dissolves well in water-based solutions.

There are two different structures of malic acid, an L-isomer and a D-isomer. The only difference between the two is that they rotate the light shining on them in two different directions. L-Malic acid is produced naturally in fruits. 90% of the acid in apples is malic acid. When malic acid is produced synthetically, a mixture of the two isomers is obtained which is called DL-malic acid (because it contains both D- and L-malic acid). When you eat DL-malic acid, your body digests it in just the same way as it does for L-malic acid. It is part of the Krebs cycle.
Malic acid can be produced in a pure form by crystallising it out of water when it has been made synthetically from maleic anhydride, which in turn is made simply from butane gas. This reaction process leads to a mixture of the two malic acid isomers. To purify the natural form of L-malic acid, it is necessary to remove it from apples or other fruits where malic acid is present in a high concentration. This can be done by fractionated distillation. Green apples are best for this since 90% of the acid present in them is malic acid.
the answer is yes. tomatoes do contain Malic acid.
Yes, folic acid is soluble in water. It is a water-soluble vitamin and dissolves well in water-based solutions.
Assuming you mean ascorbic acid, or vitamin C, it is water-soluble.

Malic acid is considered a weak acid. It only partially dissociates in water, leading to a smaller concentration of hydrogen ions in solution compared to a strong acid like hydrochloric acid.
Pantothenic acid (B5) is a water-soluble vitamin.
Of all the acid in green apples, 90% of it will be malic acid. This naturally-occuring acid will be found exclusively in the form of the L-isomer, whereas synthetic malic acid is made up of both L- and D-malic acid
