No, C4H8O2 is not propanoic acid. Propanoic acid has the chemical formula C3H6O2. C4H8O2 could be butanoic acid.
It is a weak acid, as it does not dissociate completely.
The molecular mass of propanoic acid, also known as propionic acid, is approximately 74.08 g/mol.
Yes, dimethyl ether is a structural isomer of ethanol. They both have the same molecular formula (C2H6O) but different structural arrangements.

The molecular mass of propanoic acid, also known as propionic acid, is approximately 74.08 g/mol.
Methanesulfonic acid is more acidic than propanoic acid. This is because the sulfonic acid group in methanesulfonic acid is a stronger acid group compared to the carboxylic acid group in propanoic acid.
The pH of a 1M propanoic acid solution would be around 2.98. Propanoic acid is a weak acid with a pKa value of 4.87, so at 1M concentration, it would partially dissociate in water to release hydronium ions, resulting in an acidic pH.
The pH of a 0.1 M propanoic acid solution can be calculated using the dissociation constant (Ka) of propanoic acid, which is 1.3 x 10^-5. First, calculate the concentration of propanoate ions by solving for x in the equilibrium expression for propanoic acid. Then, calculate the pH using the formula pH = -log[H+], where [H+] is the concentration of protons in the solution.
L-isomer is always found in proteins.
To convert ethanol to propanoic acid, you can first oxidize ethanol to acetaldehyde using a strong oxidizing agent such as chromic acid. Then, further oxidize acetaldehyde to propanoic acid using a milder oxidizing agent such as potassium permanganate in the presence of acidic conditions.
The presence of the triple bond in propiolic acid leads to greater acidity compared to propanoic acid. The triple bond is more electron-withdrawing than the double bond in propanoic acid, making the hydrogen ion more easily dissociable and lowering the pKa value.
