The acids found in alcohol that make it evaporate are called organic acids.
An organic acid is an organic compound that has acidic properties. There are two types: one has a carboxyl (COOH) group, and the other type has a phenol group.
The most common organic acids are those with a carboxyl group and include acetic acid, formic acid, lactic acid and all fatty acids. Perfumes include organic acid in their composition to make them volatile. Volatile substances evaporate easily, and this is important for perfumes. They need to dissipate easily into the surrounding environment and spread their good smell.
Answer:
Difference between concentrated acid and weak acid :---
- According to Arrhenius's theory the substances which easily get dissociated into H+ ions when dissolved in water are acids.
- And the substance which readily gives H+ ions on dissociation (when dissolved in water) are Strong Acid. Examples are HCl , H2SO4 etc.
While,
- Concentration of acid is just the value of pH. pH is the measurement of concentration of acid or base. The lower the pH, higher the concentration.
- So strong acid is strong because it gives H+ ions readily in water and Concentration is the value of pH.
Answer: definite proportions.
Explanation:
1) The definite proportions law states that compounds will always have the same kind of atoms (elements) in the same mass proportion (ratios).
2) For example, a molecule of water will alwys have the same mass ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms. That is what permits to obtain the chemical formula of the water molecule as H₂O.
The mass of the two hydrogen atoms will be in a fixed ratio respect to the mass of the oxygen atoms.
Then, if you have one reactant in less proportion than the other, respect to the ratio stated by the chemical formula of water, the former will react completely (it is the limiting reactant) with the corresponding (proportional) mass of the later. Then there will be an excess of the later reactant which will not react (will remain unchanged).
The reactants can only react in the proportion defined by the chemical formulas of the final products.
