The product of reduction of ethyl 4-oxobutanoate with sodium borohydride in ethanol at room temperature for 30 minutes is ethyl 4- hydroxybutanoate .

Sodium borohydride is a relatively selective reducing agent  Ethanolic solutions of Sodium borohydride reduces aldehyde , and ketone , in the presence of acid chloride , ester , epoxide , lactones , acids , nitriles , nitro groups.

The sodium borohydride does not reduce ester group because sodium borohydride is not strong enough and the electrophilicity at carbony carbon of ester is not more as compare toaldehyde , and ketone

The product of reduction of ethyl 4-oxobutanoate with sodium borohydride in ethanol at room temperature for 30 minutes is ethyl 4- hydroxybutanoate .

What is the pH of a 1.9 M solution of HClO4?
Sliva [168]
The compound HClO4, when placed in water, will dissociate into the ions, H+ and ClO4-. Therefore, the 2.0 M solution will also form 2.0 M H+. The pH is calculated through the equation,
pH = -log[H+]
Substituting,
pH = -log[2] = -0.3
Thus, the pH of the solution is -0.3.

When 1 mol of sodium nitrate, is dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, 40 kJ of heat energy is absorbed. What is the drop in
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

 1.0  ° C

Explanation:

The molar mass for Sodium Nitrate NaNO₃ = (23+14+(16×3)) = 85

Number of moles of NaNO₃  = mass of NaNO₃ /molar mass of NaNO₃

⇒ 17/85 = 1.38 moles

Since 1 mole of NaNO₃  dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, 40 kJ of heat energy is absorbed.

when 1.38 mole of NaNO₃  dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, x kJ of heat energy is absorbed..

Then; x kJ of 1.38 mole of NaNo₃ = 1.38 × 40 kJ  =55.2 kJ of heat absorbed.

Using the relation : Q = mcΔT  to determine the temperature drop ; we get:

55.2 = 17 × 4 (ΔT)

55.2  = 68 ΔT

ΔT= 0.8 ° C

ΔT ≅  1.0  ° C

Therefore, the drop in temperature when 17.0g of sodium nitrate is dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water is   1.0  ° C
