What has a higher potential energy water or lactic acid?

Lactic acid has a higher potential energy than water. This is because lactic acid contains chemical bonds that store more energy compared to the bonds in water.


What is the chemical equation for the reaction between lactic acid and sodium bicarbonate?

The chemical equation for the reaction between lactic acid and sodium bicarbonate is: C3H6O3 (lactic acid) + NaHCO3 (sodium bicarbonate) → NaC3H5O3 (sodium lactate) + H2O (water) + CO2 (carbon dioxide)


What happens when you mix sodium hydroxide with lactic acid?

When sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is mixed with lactic acid (C₃H₆O₃), a neutralization reaction occurs where the sodium hydroxide reacts with the lactic acid to form sodium lactate and water. The result is a salt, sodium lactate, and water as the byproduct.


What reaction creates lactic acid?

What form of cellular energy is lactic acid fermentation reaction part of?

lactic acid is formed by anaerobic respiration when insufficient oxygen is present.


Is a lactic acid a strong acid?

A strong acid is defined as one which disassociates completely in water. Lactic acid does not completely disassociate in water, therefore it is catagorized as a weak acid.


What is the reaction of Glucono Delta Lactone with Lactic Acid?

When glucono delta lactone (GDL) reacts with lactic acid in the presence of water, it undergoes hydrolysis to form gluconic acid. This reaction reduces the pH and results in the formation of a mildly acidic environment, commonly used in food processing as a pH regulator and acidulant.


How many ions are in lactic acid?

Lactic acid has one ion per molecule when dissolved in water.

What is equation for lactic acid after glycolysis?

The equation for the production of lactic acid after glycolysis is pyruvate + NADH + H+ -> lactate + NAD+. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase.


Is all of the lactic acid formed in glycolysis oxidized to carbon dioxide and water?

Lactic acid is not formed in glycolysis, pyruvate is (CH3COCOOH). Lactic acid (CH3CHOHCOOH) is formed afterwards in anaerobic repiration, by the reduction of pyruvate. After it is formed it is then transported to the liver where it is oxidised back to pyruvate in the hepatocytes. This then goes on to aerobic respiration entering at the link reaction stage. And yes is eventuallyturned into CO2 and H2O.


What is the word and symbol equation for Glucose Lactic acid Energy?

Glucose is converted to lactic acid in a process called anaerobic respiration. The word equation for this process is "Glucose → Lactic acid + Energy". The symbol equation for this reaction is C6H12O6 → 2C3H6O3 + Energy.
