Q

ssolubility of caarboxylic acids

A

1-5 C are soluble in water

higher carboxylic acids are less soluble

longer chain acids are soluble in less polar (ethers and alcohol)

carboxylate ion

18
Q

is a type of ketone, and it is the same fruity-smelling substance used in nail polish remover. If the breath of a person with diabetes smells of acetone, this suggests that there are high levels of ketones in their blood. As the ketones build up, they increase the acidity of the blood. This can be toxic.

A

Acetone
