When you add about 2 ml of acetic acid to a test-tube containing an equal amount of distilled water and leave the test-tube to settle after shaking its contents, what do you observe in the test tube after about 5 minutes
No reaction with distilled water. Chemical reaction occurs with solution of NaHCO3
Two Observations:
(i) Evolution of a colourless, odourless gas.
(ii) The gas is evolved with brisk effervescence
(i) Acetic acid will remain colourless in phenolphthalein. 22.
(ii) Acetic acid will dissolve in distilled water forming a clear solution.
(iii) Universal indicator gives orange colour with acetic acid.
(iv) Sodium hydrogencarbonate...
A colourless gas with brisk effervescence is evolved on addition of sodium bicarbonate to acetic acid. Lime water turns milky when this gas is passed through it, thus the evolved...
The correct answer is (b) 10√2 cm
Explanation:
When the tube is inclined, the vertical rise remains the same. So the water in the inclined tube rises to 10*sec45° =10√2 cm.
(b) Formic acid is stronger than acetic acid due to its chemical composition. Formic acid is an organic acid as well as active acid in an organic acid.
