How are Acids produced?

Question

How are Acids produced?

Answer 1

Your question is very general.  Please be more specific because there are many acids in the world.

For example:

1.  To produce hydrochloric acid HCl, one method is using hydrogen H2 and chlorine Cl2:

H2  +  Cl2   --->  2 HCl

2.  To produce acetic acid CH3COOH (or C2H4O2), in industry, one method is using ethanol C2H5OH (or C2H6O):

C2H6O  +  O2   ---->  C2H4O2  +  H2O

Good luck!

Answer 2

Many ways.

Basically, a hydrogen atom is added to another chemical combination, or an oxygen atom is removed.
