What acids in alcohol make it evaporate

Chemistry
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
6 0

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.

Write an equilibrium equation that shows bisulfate acting as a weak acid in water.
NemiM [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Bisulphate ion is a weak acid as it can form hydronium ion in water .

HSO₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ SO₄⁻² + H₃O⁺

The equilibrium constant of this reaction is very small , hence bisulphate ion is very weak acid.

How do you balance this Chemical Equation? <br>C5H12O + O2 = CO2 + H2O​
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The chemical equation by putting, a 2 on C₅H₁₂O, 15 on O₂, 10 on CO₂ , and 12 on H₂O in the equation;

2C₅H₁₂O + 15O₂ → 10CO₂ + 12H₂O​

Explanation:

  • Chemical equations are balanced by putting coefficients on the reactants and products to ensure the total number of atoms on the left side equal to those on the right side.
  • Balancing chemical equations is done to make chemical equations obey the law of conservation of mass.
  • According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants should always be equal to the mass of products.
  • This is done by balancing chemical equations to ensure the total number of atoms on the left side is equal to that on the right side.
  • Therefore, the balanced equation is;

          2C₅H₁₂O + 15O₂ → 10CO₂ + 12H₂O​
