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.

A gas has experienced a small increase in volume but has maintained the same pressure and number of moles. According to the idea
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

If a gas has experienced a small increase in volume but has maintained the same pressure and number of moles, the temperature of the gas will DROP.

Explanation:

According to Boyle’s law of ideal gases, volume and temperature of a gas is inversely related, as long as the pressure is kept constant;

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

Therefore, if the volume of the gas increases, the temperature will definitely decrease due to the inverse relationship. The gas will get cooler.
