about chemistry ...

I want to answer~~~

the difference between organic acid (OA) and inorganic acid (IOA) :


Component:

OAs: have carbon element, and strong co-valent bonds

IOAs: most of them have no carbon element in the compound, weak co-valent bonds, but strong ionic bond


Chemical reactivity:

Acidity: the ease of the Hydrogen ionise into H ion.

OAs: most of them are weak acid. But few of them are very strong acid. It depends the polarity, constitue elemnt of the compound.

IOAs: most of them are strong acid.

It depends most the bonding nature of that two acids. The Hydrogen is easier to ionise to the H ion when it is binding by a ionic bond then a co-valent bond.




Q2:

Sorry, I have not heard about it.

But I guess..... does it mean a acid with a mental ion?

Such as.... NaHSO4, or K2HPO4

This kinds of acid is quite different from the original form of the acid I mentioned.

e.g. : acidity of H2SO4 > NaHSO4

Because the H ion is easier to release in its pure acid form

1.
Organic acid: carbon-containing acids, e.g. CH3COOH.
Inorganic acid: non-carbon-containing acids, e.g. HCl.

Exceptions: H2CO­3, HCN (hydrocyanic acid) and HCNO (cyanic acid) are classified as inorganic acids, although they contain carbon.

2.
A mineral acid is an acid derived by chemical reaction from inorganic minerals. In other words, a mineral acid is an inorganic acid.

Examples: HCl (hydrochloric acid), H2SO4 (sulphuric acid), HNO3 (nitric acid) and H3PO4 (phosphoric acid).
