Answer :

There are three processes involved in the conversion of ethane to ethanoic acid.

In first process, on the chlorination of the ethane in the presence of the sunlight or in the presence of U.V light, ethane converted into ethyl chloride.

In the second process, ethyl chloride react with the aqueous potassium hydroxide to give ethanol.

In the third process, ethanol react with an oxidizing agent (Alkaline potassium permanganate) to give ethanoic acid.

The reaction are shown below.

Ethane can be turned into its carboxylic acid form called the ethanoic acid by a series of steps. First chlirinate it in the presence of light. Then, add potassium hydroxide to get an alcohol. Finally, adding KMnO4 to oxidize it to a carboxylic acid. The equations are as follows:
C2H6 + Cl2  ---> C2H5Cl + HCl
C2H5Cl+KOH-> C2H5OH+ KCl.
C2H5OH  ----KMnO4 ---> CH3COOH.

Thermal energy changes states because
Artyom0805 [142]
.Thermal energy, an extensive property, depends on the number of particles in a substance as well as the amount of energy each particle has. If either the number of particles or the amount of energy in each particle changes, the thermal energy of the sample changes. With identi- cally sized samples, the warmer substance has the greater ther- mal energy. hope that helps.

Methanol, CH3OH, is the simplest of the alcohols. It is synthesized by the reaction of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Write chemi
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The limiting reactant is H₂

Explanation:

The reaction of hydrogen (H₂) and carbon monoxide (CO) to produce methanol (CH₃OH) is the following:

2H₂(g) + CO(g) → CH₃OH(g)

From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that 1 mol of CO reacts wIth 2 moles of H₂. So, the stoichiometric ratio is:

2 mol H₂/1 mol CO = 2.0

We have 500 mol of CO and 750 mol of H₂, so we calculate the ratio to establish a comparison:

750 mol H₂/500 mol CO = 1.5

Since 2.0 > 1.5, we have fewer moles of H₂ than are needed to completely react with 500 moles of CO. In fact, we need 1000 moles of H₂ and we have 750 moles. So, the limiting reactant is H₂.

_Na+ Cl2 - -&gt; _NaCl<br><br> A 2,4<br> B 1,2<br> C 3,3<br> D 2,2
Natali [406]

Answer:

D 2,2

Explanation:

We can see that there are 2 chlorines on the reactant side so there has to be a 2 on the product side

Now we have Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl

The problem now is that there are 2 sodiums on the product side so add a 2 to the Na on the reactant side

2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl

Now it's balanced!
