What class of elements are found in acids besides hydrogen and oxygen?

Acids often contain nonmetals in addition to hydrogen and oxygen. Elements such as sulfur, nitrogen, chlorine, and fluorine are commonly found in acids. These nonmetals contribute to the acidic properties of the compounds they are part of.


Does toothpaste contain acids or alkalis?

Most toothpastes contain alkalis , however some can contain acids.


Why do some acids not contain oxygen?

Some acids do not contain oxygen because the acidic properties are due to the presence of hydrogen ions. For example, hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a strong acid but does not contain oxygen. Acids can also be defined based on their ability to donate protons, regardless of the presence of oxygen.


What contains P in addition to C H O and N?

Phosphorus (P) is also found in nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) and ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which are important molecules for genetic information and energy transfer in cells. Additionally, phospholipids, a type of lipid that forms cell membranes, also contain phosphorus.

What mineral do you add to zinc to get hydrogen?

Not a mineral, but most strong acids, such as sulfuric and hydrochloric acids will react with zinc to produce hydrogen.


What letter do most acids start with?

Most acids start with the letter "H". This is because acids typically have hydrogen as the first element in their chemical formula.


What is constituent elements of protein?

Protein is composed of amino acids, which are in turn made up of mostly carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. A few amino acids also contain sulfur: both Cysteine and Methionine. Thus, proteins containing these amino acids would be made up of very small amounts of sulfur, in addition to the more common elements listed above. In short-- The five chemical elements of protein are carbon, sulfur, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, with carbon being the most abundant.


Acidic compounds contain which element?

Well it depends on what kind of acid you're talking about. Most people think of acids as hydrogen donating compounds and that is indeed one type of acid. It fits under the Bronsted-Lowry definition of an acid and under the Arrhenius definition (which says that acids are compounds that dissociate in water into hydrogen ions etc.). However, under the Lewis definition, an acid is anything that can accept an electron pair and it doesn't have to contain hydrogen.


What makes up acid?

Acids are compounds that contain hydrogen ions (H+) and produce hydronium ions (H3O+) when dissolved in water. They typically have a pH level of less than 7 and react with bases to form salts. Common examples include hydrochloric acid (HCl) and citric acid.


How do the strengths of organic acids compare with the strengths of most inorganic acids?

Acids, like all chemical compounds, are classified as either organic or inorganic. Organic acids occur in, or can be produced from, animal and vegetable matter. In addition to hydrogen, organic acids always contain carbon and at least one other element. The strength of each acid depends on the type. There are many different acids with a large variety of strengths.
