What is boiling point of nitric acid?
The boiling point of Nitric Acid is 121 degree celsius.
What is the proper order of boiling points from highest to lowest for a hydrocarbon an alcohol a carboxylic acid and an ester?
Hydrocarbon < ether < alcohol < carboxylic acid
How can you reject water from methyl stearate in esterification reaction between stearic acid and methanol?
Well, I think, if you use a Dean-Strark apparatus, you will be able to get the ester. If the boiling point of ester is more than that of water, then on refluxing, water will collect in the side tube.
Which of these liquids has the highest boiling point isopropyl alcohol acetone or acetic acid?
This is acetic acid wth a boiling point of cca. 118 0C.
What is the boiling point of phosphoric acid?
158 oC
What is the boiling point of unsaturated acid ester?

Is aspirin a carboxylic acid and an ester?
Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid and an acetate ester of salicylic acid.
What is the boiling point of phosphoric acid?
158 oC
Among acid and ester which is more polar?
an acid is more polar than an ester
What happens to aspirin if we boil it?
The active ingredient in aspirin is acetyl salicylic acid. This is an ester, and boiling it will hydrolyze the bond and break it down into acetic acid and salicylic acid.
