(a)
Interpretation:
The flow of electron needs to be shown using the arrows for reaction of benzoic acid with hydroxide to form the product. Also, the structure of product needs to be drawn.
Concept Introduction :
In organic reaction, an organic compound is converted into other. The types of some organic reactions are addition, elimination, substitution and rearrangement etc.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reaction of product obtained from part (a) with aqueous acid needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction :

- When butanoic acid (7.0 mL) is dissolved in methanol (20 mL) and heated with a catalytic amount of concentrated sulfuric acid, methyl butanoate (6.5 mL) is isolated. Calculate the per cent yield for the formation of this product. (Use a mole for the process)arrow_forwarda chemical equation is given below. how would you classify this reaction 2NH3 h2so4->(nh4)2SO4 A. double replacement B. decomposition C. synthesis D. single replacementarrow_forwardWhy must some organic reactions occur in the absence of water?

- The extraction could have been performed using aqueous sodium bicarbonate (NaHCOs) instead of aqueous sodium hydroxide. If this had been attempted, there may have been problems with the procedure. i.Write the balanced equation which occurs when benzoic acid reacts with sodium bicarbonate to form a gaseous product (among other things).arrow_forwardWrite an equation for the reaction of chloroacetic acid (Ka=1.5103) with trimethylamine (Kb=5.9105) . Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction. If 0.10 M solutions of these two species are mixed, what will be their concentrations at equilibrium?arrow_forwardWhy does the dehydration of an alcohol more often use concentrated sulfuric acid, H2SO4H2SO4, as the acid catalyst rather than dilute hydrochloric acid, HCl? Select one or more: Hydrochloric acid is too small to effectively react with the alcohol in the reaction. The additional water solvent from a dilute solution could reverse the dehydration reaction. Only acids with more than one proton can complete the dehydration reaction. The presence of the chloride ion could result in a competing substitution reaction.arrow_forward

If you wish to measure the phosphorus content due to organic matter in the water sample using the vanadomolybdophosphoric acid method, you must first "digest" the sample to convert the organic phosphorus to orthophosphate.
