15.2: Common Acids and Their Uses

Hydrochloric Acid Hydrochloric acid is a corrosive, strong mineral acid with many industrial uses. It is acolorless, highly pungent solution of hydrogen chloridegas, HCl ( g), in water. Hydrochloric acid is usually prepared by treating HCl ( g) with water. \(\mathrm\;(aq)\) Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, since it is completely dissociated in water. Hydrochloric acid is the preferred acid in titration for determining the amount of bases and can also be used to prepare various chloride salts. It is often sold under the common name of muriatic acid for applications like cleaning concrete and pools. Sulfuric Acid Sulfuric acid is a highly corrosive strong mineral acid with the molecular formula H 2SO 4. Sulfuric acid has a wide range of applications including use in domestic acidic drain cleaners, as an electrolyte in lead-acid batteries, and in various cleaning agents. It is also a central substance in the chemical industry. Sulfuric acid behaves as a typical acid in its reaction with most metals by generating hydrogen gas. Because the hydration of sulfuric acid is thermodynamically favorable (and is highly exothermic) and the affinity of it for water is sufficiently strong, sulfuric acid is an excellent dehydrating agent. Concentrated sulfuric acid has a very powerful dehydrating property, removing waterfrom other compounds including sugar and other carbohydrates and producing carbon, heat, steam (see \(_2\mathrm O\;(g)\) Nitric Acid Nitric acid, HNO 3, is a highly corr...

Carbonic acid is a weak acid that forms when carbon dioxide gas and water chemically combine. Because carbon dioxide, . What Is Carbonic Acid? In relatively small amounts, carbonic acid is a chemical that can be found in sources such as human blood, carbonated beverages, and even rainwater. A chemical frequently appearing in a wide variety of places, you may be wondering…what is carbonic acid? Carbonic acid is a weak acid that's formed from the reaction of carbon dioxide dissolved in water. Let's take a walk down memory lane and review the concept of weak acids. By definition, a weak acid is only partially ionized in a solution. In other words, weak acids don't completely dissociate, or break apart, into ions in a solution. Using diagram 1 as an example (see video), let's say you decide to place One thing to remember with all weak acids, such as carbonic acid, is that there is a state of equilibrium between dissociation and recombination. Just as you saw those molecules of acetic acid break apart in solution at equilibrium, those same pieces can re-combine to form acetic acid molecules. This state...

Carbonic acid Formula

Carbonic acid is a weak inorganic acid, which is also considered a solution of carbon dioxide in water. It only exists as a solution, and is also called acid of air, aerial acid, carbon dioxide solution, or dihydrogen carbonate. It is best known as a component of most aerated drinks, such as sodas and soft drinks. Formula and structure: The chemical formula of carbonic acid is H 2CO 3. Its molecular formula is CH 2O 3, and its molar mass is 62.03 g/mol. The chemical structure of carbonic acid is shown below, and it consists of a carboxyl group, and two hydroxyl groups. It is a diprotic acid that can release two protons, but is only weakly acidic due to the strong O-H bonds. Occurrence: In the human body, CO 2 present in the blood combines with water to form carbonic acid, which is then exhaled as a gas by the lungs. It is also found in rocks and caves where it can dissolve limestones. H 2CO 3 can also be found in coal, meteors, volcanoes, acid rain, ground water, oceans, and plants. Preparation: Carbonic acid is formed when carbon dioxide is dissolved in water and can only exist in a solution. This reaction is typically in equilibrium, meaning that carbonic acid partially and reversibly forms carbon dioxide and water. CO 2 + H 2O ⇌ H 2CO 3 Industrially, carbonic acid is obtained as the by-product of other processes such as fermentation, fossil fuel burning, etc. Physical properties: Carbonic acid only exists as a solution, with a density of 1.668 g/mol. It is insoluble in ...

Oxyacid

Carbonic 2CO 3) is formed in small amounts when its anhydride, 2), CO 2 + H 2O ⇌ H 2CO 3 The predominant species are simply loosely hydrated CO 2 molecules. Carbonic acid can be considered to be a diprotic acid from which two series of salts can be formed—namely, hydrogen 3 −, and carbonates, containing CO 3 2−. H 2CO 3 + H 2O ⇌ H 3O + + HCO 3 − HCO 3 − + H 2O ⇌ H 3O + + CO 3 2− However, the acid-base behaviour of carbonic acid depends on the different rates of some of the reactions involved, as well as their dependence on the pH of the system. For example, at a pH of less than 8, the principal reactions and their relative speed are as follows: CO 2 + H 2O ⇌ H 2CO 3 (slow) H 2CO 3 + OH − ⇌ HCO 3 − + H 2O (fast) Above pH 10 the following reactions are important: CO 2 + OH − ⇌ HCO 3 − (slow) HCO 3 − + OH − ⇌ CO 3 2− + H 2O (fast) Between pH values of 8 and 10, all the above equilibrium reactions are significant. Carbonate and These salts can be prepared by the reaction of carbon dioxide with CO 2 + O 2 → CO 3 2− CO 2 + OH − → HCO 3 − For example, when an aqueous solution of 3, is formed in solution. Na + + OH − + CO 2 → Na + + HCO 3 − When the water is removed, the solid compound is also called sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda. When baking soda is used in cooking and, for example, causes bread or cake to rise, this effect is due to the reaction of the basic hydrogen carbonate anion (HCO 3 −) with an added acid, such as potassium hydrogen tartrate (cream of tartar), KHC 4H ...
