Question

citric acid: organic acid: : sulphuric acid:​

Answer 1

Answer:

Citric Acid (1) : Organic Acid (2) :: Sulphuric (1') Acid : ??!! (2')

We've to see the series first. It is showing the types of acids. In the first, example is written and in the second, type of the acid is mentioned.

We know,

Acid has 2 categories namely:-

• Mineral Acids
• Organic Acids

Since Sulphuric Acid is found in battery acid or acid rain which means this isn't found in Living any organism's body, it goes to the category of Mineral Acids.

_________....

Required Answer:-

Therefore, Citric Acid : Organic Acid :: Sulphuric Acid : Mineral Acids.

_____________....

Mineral Acids:-

Mineral acids are those which are found inside the earth and are very complex is nature.

Organic Acids:-

Organic acids are those which are found in living bodies and are not complex enough as compared to the mineral ones.

Answer 2

Question:-

Analogy type:-

Citric acid : organic acid : : sulphuric acid :______

Answer:-

Citric acid : organic acid::sulphuric acid : ${\underline {\sf {\green{ Mineral \: acid }}}}$

Explanation-

We know that Sulphuric acids derive from inorganic compounds and also it is a type of strong acid .So, it comes in the types of mineral acids, so here the answer will be mineral acid.

Additionally-

${\underline {\sf {\green { What \: are \: acids? }}}}$

$\implies$ The word 'acid' comes from the Latin word 'acere' which means 'sour'.So, the substances that are sour to taste and corrosive in nature are called acids.

${\underline {\sf {\green { Types \: of \: acids } }}}$

• Organic acids
• Mineral acids

${\underline {\sf {\green { Organic \: acids }}}}$ - Acids which are found in plants and animals are called organic acids. They are weak acids and safe to consume.

Examples of organic acids -

• Citric acid
• Lactic acid
• Acetic acid
• Malic acid and so on.

${\underline {\sf {\green { Mineral \: acids }}}}$ - Acids which are derive from inorganic compounds called mineral acids. They are strong acids and highly corrosive too.

Examples of mineral acids-

• Hydrochloric acid
• Nitric acid
• Sulphuric acid and so on

${\underline {\sf {\green { Few \: points \: about \: sulphuric \: acid }}}}$

• Sulphuric acid is also called "king of chemicals".

• It is an important industrial chemical.

• It is uaed in car batteries.
