Those Hydrogen atoms which are present at alpha position to carbonyl group are mildly acidic in nature. When such acidic proton containing carbonyl compounds are treated with strong base, they yield enolates. The negative charge created on alpha carbon resonates and shifts to carbonyl oxygen resulting in formation of carbon double bond carbon.

In tert−butyl methyl ketone there are two carbons at each alpha position. Among these two carbons only methyl carbon contains hydrogen atoms while the second one is bonded to further three carbons making it Quaternary carbon. The base abstracts proton from methyl group and enolate is formed.

tert−butyl methyl ketone in this case acts as acid, Hydroxyl ion acts as base, while the enolate generated is the conjugate base of tert−butyl methyl ketone and Water produced is the conjugate acid of hydroxide ion.

Write the net ionic equation for the precipitation reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of ammonium phosphate and nickel(

densk [106]

Answer:

$2PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ni^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Ni_3(PO_4)_2(s)$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the molecular chemical reaction is:

$(NH_4)_3PO_4(aq)+NiBr_2(aq)\rightarrow NH_4Br(aq)+Ni_3(PO_4)_2(s)$

Thus, by considering the ionic species we have:

$NH_4^+(aq)+2PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ni^{2+}(aq)+Br^-(aq)\rightarrow NH_4^+(aq)+Br^-(aq)+Ni_3(PO_4)_2(s)$

Wherein the ammonium and bromide ions are spectator ions since nickel (II) phosphate is largely insoluble in water, therefore, the net ionic equation is:

$2PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ni^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Ni_3(PO_4)_2(s)$

Best regards.
