Why pKa of propiolic acid is significantly lower than the pKa of propanoic acid?
due to propiolic acid having more s character than propanoic acid (sp hybridisation in the triple bond), it tends to be more electronegative than propanoic acid and therefore weakens the O-H bond allowing the H+ to dissociate easier, making it a stronger acid than propanoic acid
Why melting point of ethanoic acid is higher than propanoic acid?
Ethanoic acid is more polar than propanoic acid, as it contains fewer carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds.
Is more than one structure possible for propanoic acid?
no
Is Nitric acid or Nitrous acid more acidic?
Nitric acid is more acidic, in general the oxy acid having high ratio of oxygen is more acidic.
Which is more acidic sulphuric acid or nitric acid?
Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is more acidic than nitric acid (HNO3).

Which is more acidic formic acid or benzoic acid?
Benzoic Acid
Which is more acidic hydrochloric acid or picric acid?
Hydrochoric acid is more acidic than Picric acid.Added: Ka(Picric acid) = 0.38, Ka(HCl) >>1
Which is more acidic sulphuric acid or nitric acid?
Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is more acidic than nitric acid (HNO3).
What is more acidic lemon juice or stomach acid?
stomach acid
Which is more acidic butanoic acid or 3 methyl butanoic acid?
Butanoic acid is more acidic. Presence of electron donating methyl group (as in 3-methyl butanoic acid) will decrease the acidity.
What is more acidic lemon juice or acid rain?
Lemon Juice is more acidic.
Which is more acidic ortho-nitro benzoic acid or ortho-methoxy benzoic acid?
orho methoxy benzoic acid is more acidic due to stability achieved due to chelation effect.
Which is more acidic orthohydroxybenzoic acid or metahydroxybenzoic acid?
the ortho isomer is more acidic because the carboxylate anion (the conjugate base) can be stabilized through hydrogen-bonding.
