It is an organic acid because of a carboxyl group. Surely you can find it in your kitchen as a 10% solution, commonly known as a vinegar ;)

What acid is C2H5COOH?

The systematic name of this compound is propanoic acid.


What is the mass percent of carbon in propanoic acid (C2H5COOH) (The molar mass of C 12.01 H 1.0079 and O 16.00.)?

mass of C in C2H5COOH = 12.01 x 3 = 36.03 (since there are 3 carbon atoms in the molecule)total mass = 3x12.01 + 6x1.0079 + 2x16.00 = 74.0774mass percent of C = 36.03/74.0774 (x100) = 48.64% (to 4 sig figs)

Is acetamide acid or base?

Acetamide is a weak base. It can undergo protonation to form the conjugate acid, acetic acid, in acidic solutions.


Which of the following best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?

A Brønsted-Lowry acid-base reaction involves the transfer of a proton (H+) from the acid to the base. The acid donates a proton, while the base accepts a proton. This results in the formation of a conjugate base from the acid and a conjugate acid from the base.

Are c3h7oh and c2h5cooh polar molecules?

Yes, both c3h7oh (propan-1-ol) and c2h5cooh (acetic acid) are polar molecules because they contain polar covalent bonds due to differences in electronegativity between the atoms involved in the bonds (e.g. C-O and O-H bonds). These differences in electronegativity result in an uneven distribution of electron density, making the molecules polar overall.

What happens in a Brønsted-Lowry acid-base reaction?

In a Brønsted-Lowry acid-base reaction, an acid donates a proton (H+) to a base, which accepts the proton. This results in the formation of a conjugate base from the acid and a conjugate acid from the base. The overall reaction involves the transfer of a proton from the acid to the base.


Is salt table acid or base?

Salt is neither an acid nor a base. It is a compound formed by the reaction of an acid with a base, which can result in a neutral pH depending on the specific acid and base involved.
