Answer:
Using the definition of an acid as a "substance which donates protons (hydrogen ions) to other things", the carboxylic acids are acidic because of the hydrogen in the -COOH group. In solution in water, a hydrogen ion is transferred from the -COOH group to a water molecule.

The mechanism for these reactions involves the formation of an amide followed by hydrolysis of the amide to the acid.
