Question

a. Nitric acid and phosphoric acid are inorganic acids,whereas acetylsalicylic acid, ascorbic acid, and citric acid areorganic acids. Do organic acids possess mobile charge carriers whendissolved in water? b. Fructose, glucose, and sucrose, are sugars. The names ofsugars always end with suffix "-ose". Do sugars ionize to anappreciable extent when dissolved in water? c. Inorganic salts result from the bonding of metals withnon-metals. What conclusions can you draw about theirelectrical conductivity? d. What ions, if any, do each of the following substancesproduce in aqueous soution? Calcium nitrate, Ca(NO3)2 Ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3 Methane, CH4 Copper (I) sulfate, Cu2SO4 a.

Explanation / Answer

Organic acids conduct electricity to small extent astheir ionisation is very slow so it conducts electricity verylow. Sugars donot ionize when dissolved in water they aresoluble in water due to hydrogen bonding. Inorganic salts are formed by the combination of metalsand non-metals so they has the ability to dissociate into ions so they can conduct electricity. Ca (NO3)2 + H2O -------> Ca+2 (aq) + 2 NO3- (aq)    NH4NO3 + H2O --------> NH4+ (aq) + NO3-      CH4 +H2O -----------> insoluble      Cu2SO4 + H2O -------> 2 Cu+ (aq) +SO4-2 (aq)      CH4 +H2O -----------> insoluble      Cu2SO4 + H2O -------> 2 Cu+ (aq) +SO4-2 (aq)
