Butyric acid, found in rancid butter, has a molar mass of 88 g/mol. if butyric acid is 54.5% c, 9.09% h and 36.4% o, what is the molecular formula?

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.
