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 .

Answer:
Gallium is silvery white and soft enough to be cut with a knife. It takes on a bluish tinge because of superficial oxidation. Unusual for its low melting point (about 30 °C [86 °F]), gallium also expands upon solidification and supercools readily, remaining a liquid at temperatures as low as 0 °C (32 °F).
7.86 is the pOH of water at this temperature of 100 degrees celsius.
Option E is the right answer.
Explanation:
Data given:
Kw = 51.3 x 
pOH = ?
we know that pure water is neutral and will have pH pf 7.
The equation for relation between Kw and H+ and OH- ion is given by:
Kw = [H+] [OH-}
here the concentration of H+ ion and OH- ion is equal
so, [H+]= [OH-]
Putting the values in the equation of Kw
pKw = -log[Kw]
pKw = -log [51.3 x ]
pKw = 12.28
since H+ ion OH ion concentration is equal the pH of water is half i.e. 6.14
Now, pOH is calculated by using the equation:
14 = pOH + pH
14- 6.14 = pOH
pOH = 7.86
Answer:
two may be the answer (2)
