Reaction involving H-atom of the carboxylic acid

   Previous   Physical properties
 
  Next Reaction involving the OH-group of carboxylic acid
  

All carboxylic acids turn blue litmus red.

  

\( 2CH_3COOH + 2Na \rightarrow 2CH_3COONa+ H_2\)  

  

\( CH_3COOH + NaOH \rightarrow CH_3COONa  + H_2O \) 

  

\( CH_3COOH + NaHCO_3 \rightarrow  CH_3COONa + CO_2 +  H_2O \) 

  

Reaction of carboxylic acid with aqueous sodium carbonates solution produces bricks effervescence. However most phenols do not produce effervescence. Therefore, this reaction may be used to distinguish between carboxylic acids and phenols.
