The benzoic acid Collect the top layer dry with Na2SO4 and evaporate the solvent.

Benzoic acid is sparingly soluble in water and forms a precipitate. The benzoic acid can then be separated by suction filtration through a Buchner funnel. Washing with sodium bicarbonate converts the benzoic acid to the more water-soluble form of sodium benzoate, which is extracted into the aqueous layer. Additionally, sodium bicarbonate neutralizes the catalytic acid in this reaction.

Benzoic acid containing the naphthalene impurity can be purified by crystallization in water. The reaction between benzoic acid and NaOH is an acid-base neutralization reaction. An acid reacts with a base to form salt and water. In aqueous solutions, NaOH increases the solubility of benzoic acid. Benzoic acid cannot move from one layer to another because ethanol is immiscible with water.

LenKa [72]

solution:

the reaction for formation of methyl acetate is\\CH_{3}OH+CH_{3}COOH----------->CH_{3}COOCH_{3}+H_{2}O\\standard internal energy \\\delta u=\delta H -\delta(pv)=\delta H -\delta n\times RT\\where \delta n=change in number of moles=0\\\delta u=\delta H\\=-442kj/mol

I don't know how to do this can I get the answers plz it's due in 1 hour

Okay, so even if I just gave you the answers, your teacher needs work on it too so it'll be easier/better if I just explain how to do it.
Basically, both sides need to have the same number of molecules. To do this, we make charts. This is the first side of number one:
Na - 1
Mg- 1
F - 2
The subscript gives F two molecules, and the other ones only each have one. This is the second side:
Na- 1
Mg- 1
F- 1
So they're not equal. To fix this, we add coefficients. These are numbers that are going to appear in the front of each compound/element and changes the number of molecules of the WHOLE compound/element. We need two F on the second side, so we'll put a coefficient of 2 in front of NaF. The new chart for the second side is this:
Na- 2
Mg- 1
F- 2
Now we've fixed the F, but now Na is off! So let's go to the first side again and see what we can do. We can put a 2 in front of the Na. The new chart is this:
Na- 2
Mg -1
F- 2
Now both sides are the same. The full new equation is:
2Na + MgF(sub2) = 2NaF + Mg
Basically, do this for all of them. Feel free to ask more questions.
