Answer:

A Fridiel craft catalyst will convert benzene to acetophenone.

Permanganate catalyst can be used to convert toluene to acetophenone.

Explanation:

Benzene can be reduced to acetophenone by the addition of anhydrous aluminium chloride, AlCl₃

The mechanism is as follows:

Benzene + Acetyl choloride → acetophenone

To convert toluene to acetophenone, the following steps are necessary:

  • Oxidation of Toluene to Benzoic acid.

     This is done by refluxing toluene with alkaline potassium permanganate         (KMnO₄+ Na₂CO₃).

  • Benzoic acid is converted to Benzoyl chloride by treating with thioyl chloride and heating at about 80 ⁰C.
  • Benzoyl chloride is treated with methyl lithium to form Acetophenone.

Why does every chemical reaction require a certain amount of activation energy
attashe74 [19]

Every chemical reaction requires a minimum amount of energy to undergo reaction.

The total energy required is Threshold energy. The chemicals have some internal energy and they require some extra energy which is known as activation energy.

The reaction occurs when two molecules or atoms come closer to each other and for this they need kinetic energy.

Now for an effective collision the two molecules or atoms should collide with a minimum amount of energy so that they may undergo reaction so again they need some energy

These kinetic energy and energy for effective collision is actually called as activation energy.

Is the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas are know, which can most likely be found by using the ideal gas law?
Fiesta28 [93]

The molar amount of gas can most likely be found by using the ideal gas law. This is because the ideal gas law states pV = nRT. P, V, and T are the pressure, volume, and temperature, which are the known variables. The R stands for the Universal Constant of Gases; also known. Therefore, the unknown is n, the number of moles (molar amount) of gas, and so you would solve for n from the law.

Answer: A) The molar amount of gas
