Which of the following acids does not contain -COOH group?Which of the following acids does not contain -COOH group?

Options

  1. ACarbamic acid
  2. BBarbituric acid
  3. CLactic acid
  4. DSuccinic acid

Correct answer

B. Barbituric acid

Step-by-step solution

Carbamic acid HOOC−NH2\quad \mathrm{HOOC}-\mathrm{NH}_{2} (b) Barbituric acid C4H4 N2O3\quad \mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{4} \mathrm{~N}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3} (c) Lactic acid Which of the following acids does not contain -COOH group?
(d) Succinic acid HOOC −CH2−CH2−COOH-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{COOH} Therefore, barbituric acid is actually not an acid.
