  2. Acid strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_strength

    For example, acetic acid is a weak acid which has a = 1.75 x 10 −5. Its conjugate base is the acetate ion with K b = 10 −14 / K a = 5.7 x 10 −10 (from the relationship K a × K b = 10 −14 ), which certainly does not correspond to a strong base.

    the ionization of substituted phenols in water (+2.008) the acid catalyzed esterification of substituted benzoic esters in ethanol (-0.085) the acid catalyzed bromination of substituted acetophenones (Ketone halogenation) in an acetic acid/water/hydrochloric acid (+0.417) the hydrolysis of substituted benzyl chlorides in acetone-water at 69.8 ...

  4. pH indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH_indicator

    Normally, the indicator causes the color of the solution to change depending on the pH. Indicators can also show change in other physical properties; for example, olfactory indicators show change in their odor. The pH value of a neutral solution is 7.0 at 25°C (standard laboratory conditions). Solutions with a pH value below 7.0 are considered ...

  5. Hydroxyl value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxyl_value

    The conversion between hydroxyl value and other hydroxyl content measurements is obtained by multiplying the hydroxyl value by the factor 17/560. [2] The chemical substance may be a fat, oil, natural or synthetic ester, or other polyol. [3] ASTM D 1957 [4] and ASTM E222-10 [5] describe several versions of this method of determining hydroxyl value.

  6. Acid dissociation constant - Wikipedia

    Fumaric acid is (E)-1,4-but-2-enedioic acid, a trans isomer, whereas maleic acid is the corresponding cis isomer, i.e. (Z)-1,4-but-2-enedioic acid (see cis-trans isomerism). Fumaric acid has pK a values of approximately 3.0 and 4.5. By contrast, maleic acid has pK a values of approximately 1.5 and 6.5.

  7. Acetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetic_acid

    "Glacial acetic acid" is a name for water-free acetic acid. Similar to the German name "Eisessig" ("ice vinegar"), the name comes from the solid ice-like crystals that form with agitation, slightly below room temperature at 16.6 °C (61.9 °F). Acetic acid can never be truly water-free in an atmosphere that contains water, so the presence of 0. ...

  8. Autoprotolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoprotolysis

    In chemistry, autoprotolysis is a molecular autoionization, a chemical reaction in which a proton is transferred between two identical molecules, one of which acts as a Brønsted acid, releasing a proton that is accepted by the other molecule, which acts as a Brønsted base. [1]

    Acetyl halide, such as acetyl chloride in the presence of a base like triethylamine [2] Activated ester form of acetic acid, such as a N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, although this is not advisable due to higher costs and difficulties. [3] Acetic anhydride in the presence of base with a catalyst such as pyridine with a bit of DMAP added. [4]
