Popular questions
  1. Is benzoic acid soluble in water?

    Only sparingly—about 3 g per liter at room temperature; its solubility increases in hot water and it dissolves readily in many organic solvents.

  2. Is benzoic acid polar?

    It has a polar carboxyl group but a nonpolar aromatic ring, so overall it’s only weakly polar; its benzoate salt is much more polar and water‑soluble.

  3. Is benzoic acid a strong acid?

    No—it's a weak acid, with a pKa of about 4.2.

  4. What is the melting point of benzoic acid?

    About 122–123 °C (251–253 °F).

  5. Is benzoic acid bad for you?

    At approved food levels it’s considered safe, with an ADI of 0–5 mg/kg body weight/day; some people may experience irritation or hypersensitivity, and benzene formation in certain acidic drinks is monitored and kept very low.

  1. Is dehydroacetic acid safe?

    Where permitted, it’s considered safe at approved use levels. The EU does not authorize it as a food additive, while some other countries allow limited uses (often as sodium dehydroacetate).

  2. Dehydroacetic acid what is it?

    A synthetic antimicrobial preservative (E265) that inhibits molds and yeasts; it’s a colorless to white crystalline powder with low water solubility.

  3. Girlsdoporn e265 girl who is?

    This appears unrelated; in foods, E265 refers to dehydroacetic acid, a preservative.

  4. What does e265 error mean?

    In food labeling, E265 denotes dehydroacetic acid, not an error code; an “E265 error” likely refers to a device or software issue unrelated to food additives.

  5. What e number is decanal dehydroacetic acid?

    Dehydroacetic acid is E265; decanal is a flavoring and does not have an E‑number.
