    an organic acid. An inorganic acid or mineral acid is an acid derived from one or more inorganic compounds. The reason that organic acids are weaker than mineral acids is that organic acids do not separate completely in water, whereas strong mineral acids do separate completely in water. Organic acids do not react with metals. Harsh mineral acids on the other hand react forcefully with metals. Inorganic acids are derived from inorganic compounds and mineral sources, while organic acids have a biological

    BUTENEDIOIC ACID PRE-LAB ASSIGNMENT 1. Maleic acid is the cis version and fumaric acis is the trans version of butenedioic acid. 2. 3. See attached paper. 4. Maleic anhydride is the compound that crystalizes in part A in the experiment. 5. HCl acts as a catalyst to break one of the carbonyl group in the maleic acid which rotates the structure to form a trans structure of the butonal acid which is the fumaric acid. And it does so by donating its protons. 6. Maleic acid Chronic

    The experiment was carried out to determine if the malic acid or apple acidity is affected by their ripeness. It is hypothesized that the acidity level of the apple fruit would reduce as the fruit ripens. The experiment was performed by squeezing out the juices from the apple fruit and measuring the juice of the apple with a pH probe. The outcome of the experiment was that the unripe fruits had a high acidic level. The content of malic acid decreases from the unripe fruits until the maturity and

    water to form carbonic acid, which then breaks into CO2(g). Aspirin, Alka-seltzer, and Tylenol showed up acidic from the Universal indicator, whereas sodium bicarbonate and the unknown were blue and basic. This is because sodium is a non-reactive ion, as it is part of NaOH, a strong base, where as bicarbonate attaches to H+ ions to form carbonic acid, thus increasing OH- concentration and pH. On the other hand, Aspirin, or acetylsalicylic acid, forms salicylic acid and acetic acid, lowering pH. Alka-seltzer

    pKa of a monoprotic weak acid, polyprotic weak acid, as well as, a free amino acid, alanine. Acids and bases were defined by Bronsted-Lowry in 1923, in which acids were described as substances capable of donating a proton and bases are substances capable of accepting a proton (Thompson and Dinh 2009). In addition to defining acids and bases, Bronsted-Lowry further classified acids and bases as being either strong or weak. By definition, a strong acid or base is a substance that

    A Summary Of L-Malate

    • 4 Pages

    The citric acid cycle is an important aspect in the metabolism of nearly all aerobic cells because it develops reducing intermediates that instigate oxidative ATP synthesis. One of the major reactions that occur in this cycle produces L-Malate. This reaction is known as the reversible hydration of fumarate. L-malate, also known, as the salts and esters of Malic acid, is made by all living organisms. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme fumarase, which is also called Fumarate Hydratase. Fumarase
