The major product of reaction between 1-butanol and Na2Cr2O7 is butanoic acid.

When a primary alcohol like 1-butanol (OH is bonded to a primary carbon) is begin to oxidize in the presence of strong oxidizing reagent such as sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) and H2SO4, sulfuric acid, the stepwise oxidation take place as above firstly to the corresponding aldehyde which undergoes further oxidation to the corresponding carboxylic acid.

You can find that the formed aldehyde after first oxidation is butanal and the only organic product, due to the strong oxidizing reagent is butanoic acid.

Thus, the major product formed is butanoic acid.

Explain why the coin is able to float on top of the water in this glass.

zubka84 [21]

Surface tension is the result of water molecules pulling inward with a strong attractive force.
The attractive force brings the molecules on the surface of the water close together.
The attractive force causes the surface of the water to be drawn toward the water molecules beneath the surface. 
Since there are no water molecules above the surface, there are uneven forces. This causes surface tension, allowing the coin to float on the water’s surface.

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Even though plants are rooted in the ground, they still move, exert force, and do work.

Plant cells have very strong cell walls that allow pressure to build up inside of the cell as water is absorbed. This pressure is called turgor.

When turgor pressure is high enough in a cell, the cell walls become firm and as a result, the cell becomes rigid and the plant is able to stand tall and straight.

When a plant does not get enough water, the turgor pressure inside of the cells decreases. A decrease in pressure pushing against the cell wall causes the cells to lose their shape and shrink. This causes the plant to begin to droop or wilt.

When the wilted plant gets enough water, the cells will become rigid again, and the plant will stand firm and straight once again.
