- O is more electronegative than C atom
- so are soluble in water and form hydrogen bond
- O is more electronegative than C atom
- Carboxylic acid are polar molecule
- Dissociation
- Carboxylic acids are weak acids
- So they partially dissociate in water to from a carboxylate ion and H+ ion.
- Carboxylic acids are weak acids
- Reactions
- Carboxylic acid and reactive metals to from salt and hydrogen gas.
- Carboxylic acid and carbonate to from salt, carbon dioxide and water.
