C. The number of Valence electrons,
Every atom tries to follow the Octet rule i.e To have 8 electrons in its Valence shell.
Every atom tries to accomodate 8 electrons in its Valence shell to stabilize themselves, Metals usually have 1-3 eletrons in their Valence shell which they donate to non metals so their Valnce shell has 8 electroons, (The previous will now be the Valence shell and it will be full)
Similarly Non metals have 4-7 electrons, they accept electrons from metals so they can have 8 electrons in their Valence shell.
Noble gases already have 8 electrons in their Valance shell, so they do not react and stable.

Hope it helps :)

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The correct appropriate will be Option 1 (Acid anhydrides are less stable than esters so the equilibrium favors the ester product.)

Explanation:

  • Acid anhydride, instead of just a carboxyl group, is typically favored for esterification. The predominant theory would be that Anhydride acid is somewhat more volatile than acid. This is favored equilibrium changes more toward the right of the whole ester structure.
  • Extremely responsive than carboxylic acid become acid anhydride as well as acyl chloride. Thus, for esterification, individuals were most favored.

The other options offered are not relevant to something like the scenario presented. So, the solution here is just the right one.
