Answer:
            Option-C (Carboxylic Acid)

Explanation:
                   Vinegar is a solution made up of 95 % water and 5 % Acetic Acid. The structure of Acetic Acid is shown below. Acetic acid belongs to a class of organic compounds called as Caboxylic Acids. The functional group of carboxylic acid contain a carbonyl group bonded to hydroxyl group and an alkyl group (highlighted red in structure).
                    Due to acid nature of this class it can donate the proton bonded to oxygen atom next to carbonyl group and resulting in the formation of resonance stabilized carboxylate ion.

Other examples of Carboxylic acids are,

HCOOH     Formic Acid

CH₃-COOH     Acetic Acid

CH₃-CH₂-COOH     Propionic Acid

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-COOH     Butanoic Acid

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-COOH     Pentanoic Acid

If your end product is 1.5 moles of KMnO 4 how many moles of manganese oxide were used in the reaction? The equation for the pro
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

1.5 moles

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as:

2 MnO2 + 4 KOH + O2 --> 2KMnO 4 + 2KOH + H2

From the equation,

2 moles of MnO2 produces 2 moles of KMnO4

x moles of MnO2 would produce 1.5 moles of KMnO4

2 = 2

x = 1.5

Solving for x;

x = 1.5 * 2 / 2

x = 1.5 moles

Some organic solvents do not work well in liquid-liquid aqueous extractions. Ethanol (HOCH2CH3) is a common inexpensive solvent,
erica [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Extraction has to do with the separation of the components of a mixture by dissolving the mixture in a set up involving two phases. One phase is the aqueous phase (beneath) while the other is the organic phase (on top). The solvents used for the two phases must not be miscible. Water commonly is used for the aqueous phase.

Ethanol is an important solvent in chemistry but the solvent is miscible with water in all proportions. As a result of this, ethanol is a poor solvent for carrying out extraction.
