The answer would be: <span> vinegar (acetic acid).

To dissolve deposit that calcified, you need to dissolve the calcium. Calcium is one of the metal that makes base pH. It will react with acid compound and produce a molecule of water. Ammonia, bleach, lye </span><span>, and baking soda are all base and won't react with the </span><span>calcium carbonate. Vinegar is acid and will react to it.

Hello!

Vinegar would be most effective in dissolving the deposits of Hard Water.

Vinegar (CH₃COOH) is a weak acid, while Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃), being the salt of a weak acid, will be a weak base. These two compounds will react together in the following way:

2CH₃COOH + CaCO₃ → (CH₃COO)₂Ca + H₂CO₃

H₂CO₃ reacts further to yield Water and CO₂

H₂CO₃ → H₂O + CO₂(g)

So, vinegar would be effective at dissolving CaCO₃, and we should see bubbles as a proof that a reaction has occurred.

Have a nice day!

What is the final product of the following sequence of reactions? (CH3NCHOH PBr3 Mg diethyl ether 1) L N PCC 2) H3O * CH2Cl2 A)
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

(CH3)2CHCH2CHO

Explanation:

The reaction sequence begins with the reaction of isopropanol with phosphorus tribromide to yield isopropyl bromide. This is followed by reaction with Magnesium in ether solution giving a grignard reagent, isopropyl magnesium bromide. This is now attacked by oxirane and the epoxide ring opens, hydrolysis of the product, followed by oxidation using pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) yields the final product- (CH3)2CHCH2CHO

The detailed reaction mechanism is attached to this answer.
