How many acidic hydrogen atoms and how many nonacidic hydrogen atoms are present in each of the following molecules?(a) H2CO3 (carbonic acid)acidicnonacidic(b) H2C3H,O4 (glutaric acid)acidicnonacidic(c) HC,H302 (acetic acid)acidicnonacidic(d) HCO,H (formic acid)acidicnonacidic

An acidic substance is the substance that can give H+ ions. They are corrosive and sour in nature. On the contrary, the substance that gives OH- ions and bitter in taste.The acidic and basic nature of substance can be shown with the help of pH of solution. The pH of solution is negative logarithm of concentration of H+ ions.The H atom bonded with more electronegative atoms like O can release in the form of H+ ions which determines the acidic nature of the molecule. Thus, in the given acids, the number of acidic and non-acidic H atoms are: > H2CO3 = 2 acidic H atoms, 0 non-acidic H atoms > H2C5H6O4 = 2 acidic H atoms, 6 non-acidic H atoms > HC2H3O2 = 1 acidic H atoms, 3 non-acidic H atoms > HCO2H = 1 acidic H atoms, 1 non-acidic H atomsAnswer: > H2CO3 = 2 acidic H atoms, 0 non-acidic H atoms > H2C5H6O4 = 2 acidic H atoms, 6 non-acidic H atoms > HC2H3O2 = 1 acidic H atoms, 3 non-acidic H atoms > HCO2H = 1 acidic H atoms, 1 non-acidic H atoms

Ionic Equilibrium

Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.

Arrhenius Acid

Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.

Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry

Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
