Is C2H3O2 an strong or weak acid or base?

CH3COOH is a acid. It is a weak acid.


Which pair consists of a weak acid and a strong base?

Acetic acid (CH3COOH) is a weak acid and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong base.


What is the conjugate base of CH3COOH?

The conjugate base of CH3COOH is CH3COO-. This forms when CH3COOH loses a proton (H+).


What is the acid and base of CH3COOH?

The compound is ethanoic acid, and it is not a base.


What acid or base will you expect to find as a constituent of vinegar?

Ch3cooh


Compare the degree of ionization of hcl and ch3cooh?

HCL is completely (or nearly 100%) ionized because it is a strong acid whereas the CH3COOH is partially ionized as it is a weak acid.


How do you determine if a conjugate acid or base will be strong or weak?

A weak acid/base will have a stronger conjugate base/acid. The conjugate acids/bases of strong bases/acids are very weak because they have no attraction to protons or hydroxides, which is why the reaction shifts all the way to the right and the Ka/b is large.


Is NaHC2O4 acidic?

It is a so called Amfolyt. Both acid and base.


How many titratable protons are in ch3cooh?

There is one titratable proton in acetic acid (CH3COOH). It is the proton on the carboxyl group that can be donated in an acid-base reaction during titration.


What happens when caustic soda is added to vinegar?

Caustic soda is sodium hydroxide (NaOH), which is a strong base. Vinegar, a weak acid, is dilute acetic acid (CH3COOH). When combined, they undergo a neutralization reaction producing water and the salt sodium acetate (NaCH3COO). The balanced chemical equation is written below.NaOH(aq) + CH3COOH(aq) --> H2O(l) + NaCH3COO(aq)


What is the chemical equation for acetic acid and potassium hydroxide?

Acetic acid (Ethanoic acid) is a weak acid, and when reacted with a strong base like Potassium hydroxide, it establishes an equilibrium: CH3COOH + KOH <=> CH3COOK + H2O The reaction mixture contains all four products in different proportions, and as such, an acid buffer is created. When an acid is added, the CH3COO- ions (those mixed with the K+ ions) 'mop up' the H+ ions from the acid. When a base is added, the H+ ions from the CH3COOH 'mop up' the OH- ions so the pH is little affected. NB. pH=-log10(H+)


Is ch3cooh and ch3coona acts as buffer?

Yes, the mixture of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and sodium acetate (CH3COONa) acts as a buffer solution. This is because acetic acid is a weak acid, and sodium acetate provides its conjugate base (acetate ion, CH3COO−). Together, they can resist changes in pH when small amounts of strong acids or bases are added, maintaining a relatively stable pH in the solution.
