Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the ability of an atom to attract electrons towards itself.

Whereas when there is difference in values electronegativity of two different atoms then it is known as electronegativity difference.

For example, in a HCl compound the hydrogen atom is electropositive and chlorine atom is electronegative. Electronegativity value of hydrogen is 2.1 and chlorine has 3.0.

Hence, difference in their electronegativities is 3.0 - 2.1 = 0.9.

Also, it is known that when the electronegativity difference is less than or equal to 1.7 then the bond formed between the combining atoms will be polar covalent.

For each of the esters provided, identify the alcohol and the carboxylic acid that reacted.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

52. The alcohol USED => methanol, CH3OH

The carboxylic acid USED => propanoic acid, CH3CH2COOH.

53. The alcohol USED => Ethanol, CH2CH3OH

The carboxylic acid USED => Formic acid, HCOOH.

Explanation:

52. To obtain Methyl propanoate, CH3CH2COOCH3, we simply react propanoic, CH3CH2COOH and methanol, CH3OH together as shown below:

CH3CH2COOH + CH3OH —> CH3CH2COOCH3 + H2O

The alcohol used: methanol, CH3OH

The carboxylic acid used: propanoic acid, CH3CH2COOH.

53. To obtain Ethyl methanoate, HCOOCH2CH3, we simply react

Formic acid, HCOOH and ethanol, CH3CH2OH together as show below:

HCOOH + CH3CH2OH —> HCOOCH2CH3 + H2O

The alcohol USED => Ethanol, CH2CH3OH

The carboxylic acid USED => Formic acid, HCOOH.
