Properties of COO Flashcards
1
Q
What bonding is present in COOH
A
-hydrogen bonding and permeant dipole dipole
2
Q
Which bonding is stronger and why between Alkanes and COOH
A
-Alkanes only LDP, COOH have hydrogen bonding
3
Q
Explanation whether COOH are soluble in water or no?
A
-They are
-because they from hydrogen bonds and dipole dipole interaction with water
4
Q
Group 2 metal + COOH i.e Mg
A
2CH3COOH + Mg -> (CH3COO)2Mg + H2
5
Q
Test for COOH
A
-Add sodium carbonate
-Fizzing happens and solid dissolves. If gas is passed it turn limewater milky
