Succinic acid is a weak diprotic acid (CH2COOH).
yes
Succinic acid may be slightly soluble in hexane, but not to a useful extent. Succinic acid would be better suited for a solvent that it can hydrogen bond with due to its hydroxyl groups.
Oxidized
Because the porin is involved in succinic acid transport into the cell...
Succinic acid is 'butane-di-oic' acid: HOOC-CH2-CH2-COOH, C4H6O4: So it has got four (4) carbon atoms
succinic anhydride can be obtained by dehydration of succinic acid. first take succinic acid in the china dish. Then cover the china dish with the filter paper and make the upper part porous. Then put the inverted funnel having filter paper in it( which have its thin side blocked with cotton) over the china dish.Put the whole set up over the sand bath which is already over the flame. heat the compound till you get the crystals on the filter paper which is in the funnel.
Succinic acid has four carbon atoms.
equivalent weight of succinic acid is 118/2 is 59

SOLUBILITY IN WATER Insoluble SOLVENT SOLUBILITY Soluble in hexane, toluene, ethanol and acetone. Insoluble in propylene glycol --- The above statement with water is wrong. I am currently running experiments on equilibrium concentration of succinic acid in a water/hexane system. I was able to find several articles in the litterature where a mixture of succinic acid and n-butanol is used, but nothing with succinic acid and hexane. I estimate the solubility of Succinic Acid in water to be ≥23.020±0.005 g/kg of water @ 21˚C. So far, 0.1g do NOT disolved completely in 133g of hexane, even after being heated to about 35˚C and stirred intensively for several hours. CHG Patrick - 25/08/10 ---- Patrick is absolutely right. The first answer is completely wrong. Succinic Acid is not going to be soluble in hexane as Malonic and Succinic acid are both highly polar substances and Hexane is Non-Polar. Like dissolves like. -Trifectaus Sept 7,2010
mostly it is found in mitochondria as it is used in the TCA cycle
