Question

All acids are not corrosive justify the statement

Answer 1

Heya,

All acids are not corrosive.

Acids are of 2 types based on reactivity namely strong acids and weak acids.

Strong acids are highly reactive due to which they corrode very easily .

They have a pH value less than 4.

While weak acids are very less reactive due to which they donot corrode.

They also have a high pH value than strong acids.


Hope it helps u...

___________________________________

All acids are not corrosive because there are two types of acid based on reactivity.They are 1)Mineral acids (strong acids) 2)Organic acids (weak acids)

Mineral acids have a pH value less than 4 (ph scale-0 to 3) and are highly reactive (corrosive) due to which they corrode very easily.They are prepared from minerals of the Earth,eg- HCI,H2SO4.

Organic acids have a high pH value than Mineral acids (ph scale-3-7) and are very less reactive due to which they don't corrode.They are present in plants and animals like citric acid ,tartaric acid,etc.

Mineral acids are corrosive but organic acids are not corrosive.Hence,all acids are not corrosive.
