HOOCCOOH please rephrase that because idk if you're talking about H2O4C2 or what

HOOCCOO is a polyatomic ion, and I didn't realize this until 20 mins after the test, so now I'm crying on the inside and outside

dude that molecule would never exist in a form that ugly it would be compressed into different water molecules and hydroxide ions

Hi fam, I'm a chemist. You're reacting oxalic acid (HOOCCOOH) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to form something and water. What's missing from the right side of the equation? Further, what do you know about acid-base chemistry?

HOOCCOO is a polyatomic ion, HOOCCOOH is the acid form, my mind went blank while I was trying to balance this during the test and now I hate myself
