When compared to sulfuric acid, how strong are carboxylic acids? when compared to sulfuric acid, how strong are carboxylic acids

? just as strong weaker stronger not acidic at all?
Chemistry

Vikentia [17]3 years ago

Compared to sulphuric acid, carboxylic acids are much weaker, this is because of their overall characteristic with respect to pKa, they do not dissociate completely as to all be in their conjugate base form but will have equal amounts in both.

Sulfuric acid is a strong polyprotic acid, and has a pKa value that is even smaller than the carboxylic acid.

In the reaction of chlorine with calcium, explain which atom is oxidized.
romanna [79]

Answer:

The atom is oxidized is Ca.

Explanation:

  • The oxidation-reduction reaction contains a reductant and an oxidant (oxidizing agent).
  • The oxidation process is the process in which electrons are lost and produce positively charged ions.
  • The reduction process is the process in which electrons is gained and negatively charge ions are produced.

  • In the reaction of chlorine with calcium:

<em>Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂,</em>

Ca loses 2 electrons and is oxidized to Ca²⁺. (Ca <em>→</em> Ca²⁺ + 2e).

Cl is gains 2 electrons in "Cl₂, oxidation state zero" and is reduced to Cl⁻. (Cl₂ + 2e <em>→</em> 2Cl⁻).

Acetone major species present when dissolved in water
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: acetone molecule ( CH₃-CO-CH₃)


Explanation:


1) Acetone is CH₃-CO-CH₃


2) That is a molecule (build up of covalent bonds).


3) When dissolved, covalent bonded compounds remain as separate molecules, then it is said that the major species present in the solution is the molecule. The molecules of acetone are surrounded (sovated) by the molecules of water.


This as opposed to the case of ionic compounds that ionize. When a compound as NaCl dissolves in water, it ionizes completely, so the major speceies are not NaCl formulas, but the ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻, not molecules.


That leads to the answer: the major species present when acetone is dissolved in water is the molecules of acetone (you do not need to state the fact that the molecules of water are part of the solution, because that is not the target of the question).

Two angles with measures (6x + 60) (90)<br> are supplementary. What is the value of x?
fredd [130]
Supplementary angles add up to 180, so
6x+60+90 = 180 and solve for x
6x= 30
x=5
