In the mathematical equation showing that volume (V) divided by temperature (T) remains equal to a constant (k), volume and temp
1 answer:
Answer:
Directly
Explanation:
If V increases, then T must also increase to keep the same ratio.
If V decreases, then T must also decrease to keep the same ratio.
V and T are directly proportional, because a change in one always causes a change in the other and the changes are in the same ratio. The constant k is called the proportionality constant.

Answer:
Explanation:
The equation is given as:
CH3CHOHC2H4CHO + CH3OH --> CYCLIC ACETAL + H2O
This above equation is carried out in the presence of a strong acid. There are five mechanisms employed and they are:
Step 1:
Initial formation of the hemiacetal which takes several steps
Step 2:
Addition of a proton. The hemicetal is protonated on the hydroxyl group (-OH group)
Step 3:
As seen a bond is broken to give the H2O molecule and a resonance stabilized cation.
The carbonyl group on the cation is enriched with the oxygen-18 got from the H2O molecule as seen in the mechanism.
Step 4:
An attraction occurs between electrophile and nucleophile i.e the stabilised cation and the lone paids of the methanol.
Step 5:
Finally, a proton (+) is removed from the molecule by a lone pair of electron on the methanol.
