Define an acid. What are inorganic acids? Give three examples, each of strong inorganic acids and
weak inorganic acids along with their formulae.
Answers
Explanation:
The inorganic acids, especially sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and hydrochloric acid, are manufactured for commercial use in large plants in large quantitiesAcid, any substance that in water solution tastes sour, changes the colour of certain indicators (e.g., reddens blue litmus paper), reacts with some metals (e.g., iron) to liberate hydrogen, reacts with bases to form salts, and promotes certain chemical reactions (acid catalysis).
Answer:
1. Define acid
- A liquid substance that can dissolve metal and may burn your skin or clothes.
2. What are inorganic acids?
- Inorganic acids, which contain no carbon and are also called mineral acids, are acids derived from one or more inorganic compounds. ... Oxygen containing acids include, nitric acid (monobasic), sulfuric acid (dibasic) and orthophosphoric acid (tribasic).
3. Give three examples, each of strong inorganic acids and
weak inorganic acids along with their formulae.
- Inorganic acid is a compound consisting of hydrogen and non-metallic elements or their groups, e.g., hydrochloric acid (HCI), nitric acid (HNO3), boric acid (H3BO3), sulfuric acid (of H2SO4), carbonic acid (H2CO3), phosphoric acid (of H3PO4), etc.
Some common examples of weak acids are listed below.
* Formic acid (chemical formula: HCOOH)
* Acetic acid (chemical formula: CH3COOH)
* Benzoic acid (chemical formula: C6H5COOH)
* Oxalic acid (chemical formula: C2H2O4)
* Hydrofluoric acid (chemical formula: HF)
* Nitrous acid (chemical formula: HNO2)
