How to convert butanoic acid to propanamide?​

Chemistry

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.

Igoryamba

Answer:

<em>A solution containing 60 grams of nano3 completely dissolved in 50. Grams of water at 50°c is classified as being</em> <u>supersaturaded</u>

Explanation:

This question is about solubility.

Regarding solubility, the solutions may be classified as:

  • Unsaturated: the concentration is below the maximum concentration permited at the given temperature.

  • Saturated: the concentration is the maximum permitted at the given temperature, under normal conditions.

  • Supersaturated: the concentration has overcome the maximum permitted at the given temperature. This is possible only under special conditions and is a very unstable state.

Each substance has its own, unique solubility properties. So, in order to tell the state of the solution you need to compare with either solubility tables, or solubility curves; or run you own experiments.

  • In internet you can find the solubility curve of NaNO₃ showing the solubility for a wide range of temperatures.

  • In such curve the solubility of NaNO₃ at 50°C is about 115 g of NaNO₃ per 100 g  of water.

  • Hence, do the proportion to determine the amount of solute that can be dissolved in 50 grams of water at 50°CÑ

       115 g NaNO₃ / 100 g H₂O = x / 50 g H₂O  ⇒ x =  57.5 g NaNO₃

  • <u>Conclusion</u>: 50 grams of water can contain 57.5 g of NaNO₃ dissolved; so, <em>a solution containing 60 g of NaNO₃ completely dissolved in 50 grams of water is supersaturated.</em>

kobusy [5.1K]
Answer is: Allena is correct. It is an element because it is only made of chlorine atoms.
A chemical element bonded to an identical chemical element is not a chemical compound since it is made from only one element and not from two different elements. Chlorine is molecule, but not compound.
