Alcohols and carboxylic acids can be distinguished by litmus test and Reaction with sodium hydrogen carbonate
(i) Litmus test – Alcohol will have no effect on the litmus paper. Carboxylic acid acid will change blue litmus paper into red.
(ii) Reaction with sodium hydrogen carbonate – Alcohol has no reaction with sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO₃) but in the case of Carboxylic acid it reacts with NaHCO₃ which gives CH₃COONa, CO₂ and H₂O. The reaction is evident as the carbon dioxide will turn the lime water milky.
