1) Give reasons for the following (a) HCl and HNO3 show acidic characters in aqueous solution while glucose and alcohol solution do not show acidic character even though they contain hydrogen. (b) Dry HCl does not change the color of dry litmus paper. |

Answer» BHAI, ye chemistry hai, physics nahi but, ye lo apka answer a) Glucose and alcohols have +I group which reduces the polarity of the -OH BOND PRESENT, hence reducing the acidity b) This is because dry HCl gas does not contain H+ ions. It is only in the aqueous solution that an acid dissociates to give ions. Since in this case, neither HCl is in the aqueous FORM nor the litmus paper is wet. please mark me brainliest |
