Acids

Acid strength is measured by the position of equilibrium of ionization in water. In other words acid strength is the function of the stability of conjugate base of the acid. More is the stability of conjugate base of the acid, more is the acidity of acid. Which of the following is weakest acid?

Mineral acids are stronger acids than carboxylic acids because (i) mineral acids are completely ionised. (ii) carboxylic acids are completely ionised. (iii) mineral acids are partially ionised. (iv) carboxylic acids are partially ionised.

Compare the acid strengths of the following: Benzoic acid and formic acid

Why is trichloroacetic acid stronger acid than acetic acid?

Compare the acid strengths of the following: Formic acid and acetic acid

How many of the following are the substrates involved in the Kreb's cycle? Citric acid, succinic acid, hydrochloric acid, a-ketoglutaric acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, pyruvic acid, phosphoglyceric acid, acetic acid

Cartlonic acid, Acetic acid, Benzoic acid, Boric acid

Formic acid is a weak acid and hydrochloric acid is a strong acid. It shows that the :

An acid having basicity 1 is ________[carbonic acid/acetic acid/sulphurous acid]
