No, benzoic acid is not soluble in hydrochloric acid. However if you boil the benzoic acid to where it is water soluable and add hydrochloric acid it forms it back into the solid

HBr is a stronger acid than HCl?

Actually, HCl is a stronger acid than HBr. This is because the strength of an acid is determined by its ability to dissociate and donate a hydrogen ion. HCl completely dissociates in water, while HBr partially dissociates, making HCl a stronger acid.


Why formic acid is stronger acid than acetic acid?

Hydrochloric acid, HCl


Would you consider hydroiodic acid to be a stronger or a weaker than hydrochloric acid?

Both are strong acids (this means stronger than H3O+) but HI is stronger than HCl.


What results from a mixture of benzoic acid to and HCL?

You will get benzoic acid as a result. The benzoic salt will gain a Hydrogen from the HCl; thus, becoming benzoic acid, and the Cl shall remain by itself in suspension if you're mixing the two together in an aqueous solution.


Why does HCl create more gas than nitric acid on when dissolving sea shells?

HCl is a stronger acid and will dissolve more of the shell than an equivalent concentration of nitric acid.


Why HBr is weaker Acid than HCl?

HBr is a weaker acid than HCl because the bond between hydrogen and bromine is longer and weaker than the bond between hydrogen and chlorine. This makes it easier for HCl to release its hydrogen ion in solution, making it a stronger acid compared to HBr.


What equation is this HCl(aq) plus C6H5COONa(aq) -- and gt C6H5COOH(s) plus NaCl(aq)?

There can be no such reaction. Perhaps you meant HCl(aq) + C6H5COONa to get C6H5COOH plus NaCl. That would be converting the sodium salt of benzoic acid (sodium benzoate) into benzoic acid and sodium chloride by using hydrochloric acid.


Why is HI more stronger acid than HCl?

Iodine is larger in size so makes weaker bond with hydrogen and HI easily ionizes in water and is strong acid while HCl bond is relatively strong and not broken down easily in water as compare to HI.


Is ethanoic stronger than hydrochloric?

In terms of acidity, hydrochloric acid is stronger than ethanoic acid. Hydrochloric acid is a mineral acid with a lower pH value and is therefore considered a stronger acid compared to ethanoic acid, also known as acetic acid.


Is hcl stronger than nitric acid?

Hydrochloric acid and nitric acid have comparable degrees of acidity; the strength of either acid will depend upon the concentration.


Which acid is stronger between sulphuric and hydrochloricacid?

Sulfuric acid is generally considered stronger than hydrochloric acid because it is a strong acid that can fully dissociate in water to release more hydrogen ions. Hydrochloric acid is also a strong acid but is slightly weaker than sulfuric acid.


What 2 substances will be formed when hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide?

HCl + NaOH = H2O + NaCl Or, water and table salt--which will dissolve in water. Benzoic acid, C6H5COOH, will not be formed; neither of the two starting chemicals contains carbon, and benzoic acid contains a lot of it. - - - - - Benzoic acid and sodium chloride
