D, because C12 means there's 12 atoms of carbon.
Answer:
Esterification reaction
Explanation:
An esterification reaction is an organic reaction involving an organic acid and an alkanol to give an ester or an ethanoate and water
Like the name suggests, an ester is the product formed in an esterification reaction alongside water. It is like a neutralization reaction but this time it solely contains organic molecules. These molecules react with each other to give rise to another organic molecule which is a member of a different homologous series.
Practically, to form ethyl ethanoate, ethanoic acid react with ethanol in the presence of concentrated sulphuric acid which catalyses the reaction.
<span>the balanced equation for the reaction is as follows
Na</span>₂<span>SO</span>₄<span> + BaCl</span>₂<span> ----> 2NaCl + BaSO</span>₄
<span>stoichiometry of Na</span>₂<span>SO</span>₄<span> to BaCl</span>₂<span> is 1:1
first we need to find out which the limiting reactant is
limiting reactant is fully used up in the reaction.
number of Na2So4 moles - 0.5 mol number of BaCl2 moles - 60 g / 208 g/mol = 0.288 mol
since molar ratio is 1:1 equal number of moles of both reactants should react with each other
therefore BaCl2 is the limiting reactant and Na2SO4 is in excess. amount of product formed depends on number of limiting reactant present.
stoichiometry of BaCl</span>₂<span> to BaSO</span>₄<span> is 1:1.
therefore number of BaSO4 moles formed - 0.288 mol</span>
