Answer:

a. acetal

Explanation:

In the presence of an acid, the alcohol molecules are aided to form a bond with the aldehydes in both two dimensional geometry and as a result of this bond formation an acetal forms.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Acetals are geminal-diether derivatives of aldehydes or ketones, formed by reaction with two equivalents (or an excess amount) of an alcohol and elimination of water. Ketone derivatives of this kind were once called ketals, but modern usage has dropped that term.

To achieve effective hemiacetal or acetal formation, two additional features must be implemented. First, an acid catalyst must be used because alcohol is a weak nucleophile and second the water produced with the acetal must be removed from the reaction.

What is the relationship between temperature and kinetic energy?
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has because of its motion. The molecules in a substance have a range of kinetic energies because they don't all move at the same speed. As a substance absorbs heat the particles move faster so the average kinetic energy and therefore the temperature increases.
