Question

difference between propanoic acid and acrylic acid​

Answer 1

Answer:

Propanoic Acid=Propanoic Acid is a naturally occurring carboxylic acid with chemical formula CH3, CH2,CO2,H.It is a liquid with a pungent and unpleasant smeel some what resembling body odar.The anion CH3,CH2,CH2 as well as the salts and esters of propionic acid are known as propinates and propanonates.

Acrylic Acid=Acrylic Acid is an organic compound with the formula CH2=CHCOOH.It is the simplest unsaturated carboxylic acid, consisting of a vinyl group connected directly to a carboxylic acid terminus.This colourless liquid has a characteristic acrid or tart smell.It is misciable with with water, alcohol, ethers,and chloroform.

Answer 2

Answer:

The difference between propanoic acid and acrylic acid​ is as below:

Explanation:

Propionic acid $(C_{3}H_{6} O_{2} )$ is a three-carbon carboxylic acid that occurs naturally.

• It is a colourless, water soluble, caustic liquid with a pungent, somewhat unpleasant odour in its pure condition.
• Propionic acid is a clear, oily liquid with a pungent odour.
• It's a preservative, fungicide, and antibacterial agent all in one.
• The carboxyl group $-COOH$ is the functional group of propanoic acid.
• The carboxyl group is made up of two different functional groups: the hydroxyl $-OH$ and the carbonyl $-C=O$.

Acrylic acid:

• Acrylic acid is an unsaturated acid that is the most basic of the unsaturated acids.
• Acrylic acid is a liquid at room temperature, with a characteristic acid and tart aroma.
• In both liquid and vapour form, it is corrosive.
• Acrylic acid is primarily utilised in the manufacture of polymers.
