Give IUPAC names for the following carboxylic acids:
True or false The hydroxyl group found in an organic compound is responsible for its basicity. Aromatic hydrocarbons are considered polar and has high affinity to water. Acidic drugs are a class of chemical compounds that normally have high hydrophilicity and negative charges. Amino groups attached to hydrocarbons are considered polar which may be responsible for its solubility. Lipophilic drugs have a faster rate of absorption than hydrophilic drugs.
