Question

Explain how organic acids are different from inorganic (mineral) acid? ​

Answer 1

Organic Acid

It is soluble in organic solvents. An organic acid is an organic compound with acidic properties. The most common organic acids are –COOH. Sulfonic acids etc.

Inorganic Acid

It is insoluble in organic solvents. Inorganic acid is a compound consisting of hydrogen and non-metallic elements or their grouos. example- hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, boric acid

Answer 2

$\huge\bf{Answer:}$

organic acids are weak acids and do not dissociate completely in water, whereas the strong mineral acids do. Lower molecular mass organic acids such as formic and lactic acids are miscible in water, but higher molecular mass organic acids, such as benzoic acid, are insoluble in molecular (neutral) form.
