How to convert butanoic acid to propanamide?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
netineya [11]2 years ago
8 0

Butanoic acid is converted to propanamide by first converting it to propanoic acid, then ammonium propanoate and then finally propanamide by heating.

<h3>How are carboxylic acids converted to amides?</h3>

Carboxylic acids are converted to amides by converting them into into an ammonium salt which then produces an amide on heating.

The ammonium salt is prepared by adding ammonium carbonate to an excess of the acid. The ammonium salt is then heated to give the amide

Therefore, butanoic acid is converted to propanamide by first converting it to propanoic acid, then ammonium propanoate and then finally propanamide by heating.

In conclusion, carboxylic acids are converted to amides in two steps.

The following equation is balanced correctly. 4C2H6 + 7O2 --&gt; 6H2O + 4CO2<br> True <br> False
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: False

Explanation:

4C2H6 + 7O2 --> 6H2O + 4CO2

8 Carbons on the reactant side, but 4 Carbons on the Product

24 Hydrogens on Reactant, 12 H on product

But Oxygen is balanced, 14 on each side

A 12.5 g sample of granite initially at 82.0 oc is immersed into 25.0 g of water that is initially at 22.0 oc. what is the final
Paraphin [41]

The amount of heat lost by granite is equal to the amount of heat gained by water. Therefore their change in enthalpies must be equal. The opposite in sign means that one is gaining while the other is losing

ΔH granite = - ΔH water

ΔH is the change in enthalpy experienced by a closed object as it undergoes change in energy. This is expressed mathematically as,

ΔH = m Cp (T2 – T1)

Given this information, we can say that:

12.5 g * 0.790 J / g ˚C * (T2 – 82 ˚C) = - 25.0 g * 4.18 J / g ˚C * (T2 – 22 ˚C)

9.875 (T2 – 82) = 104.5 (22 – T2)

9.875 T2 – 809.75 = 2299 – 104.5 T2

114.375 T2 = 3108.75

T2 = 27.18 ˚C

The temperature of 2 objects after reaching thermal equilibrium is 27.18 ˚<span>C.</span>

Which pair of reactants will undergo aldol condensation to produce methylvinyl ketone?
xenn [34]

When formaldehyde and acetone then react with each other( aldol condensation) then it will be formed <u> methyl vinyl ketone.</u>

<u />

In organic chemistry, an aldol condensation would be a condensation reaction in which an enol and enolate ion combines with a carbonyl chemical to produce a -hydroxy aldehyde or -hydroxy ketone, that is then dehydrated to produce a conjugated enone.

In aldol condensation, when  formaldehyde and acetone then react with each other then it will be formed <u> </u><u>methyl vinyl ketone.</u>

It can be written as

CH_{2} O + CH_{3} COCH_{3} → HOCH_{2} -CH_{2} -CO-CH_{3}

When it will be heated then it gives methyl vinyl ketones.

HOCH_{2} -CH_{2} -CO-CH_{3} → CH_{2} =CH-CO-CH_{3}

So, the pair of reactants will be formaldehyde and acetone
