Which chemical class does phenobarbital belong to?
1 answer:
<span>Phenobarbital is derivative of Barbituric Acid and Barbituric Acid is derivative of Urea. (structures shown in Fig below)
Urea has H</span>₂N- group attached to Carbonyl Group (C=O), and such class of comounds conataining H₂N-C=O bond are called as Amides.
Result:
So, <span>Phenobarbital belongs to Amides.</span>

4 moles of water are produced
Explanation:
- 4 moles of water are produced when 5 moles of hydrogen is reacted with 2 moles of oxygen gas
- The balanced equation given is when 2 moles of hydrogen reacts with 1 mole of oxygen and it forms 2 moles of water.
- The equation we have to solve is the 5 moles of hydrogen is reacting with 2 moles of oxygen gas, we can write the equation as
- This is the balanced equation when 5 moles of hydrogen reacts with 2 moles of oxygen. The balanced equation means the number of hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms on both sides would be equal in number.
