Hazard Predictions
- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
Carboxylic acids will undergo mildly exothermic acid-base reactions with weak bases.
Carboxylic acids react with sodium bicarbonate to form a salt and CO2 gas (Morrison, R. 1973. Organic Chemistry. Allyn and Bacon, Inc., Boston).
Potential Gas Byproducts
- Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
