kifflom [539]3 years ago

Alkali Metals (Group 1) elements experience an increase in the vigour of their reaction in water as they go down the group (as the atomic number increase). As such the most reactive Alkali Metal would be FRANCIUM, which is at the base of Group One.


Quite frankly, you do not want Francium to react with water- that's a huge explosion on your hand.

What chemical process is responsible for the smell of vinegar in an old bottle of aspirin?
Oliga [24]

Chemical process is responsible for the smell of vinegar in an old bottle of aspirin is Hydrolysis of ester i.e. Aspirin.

Aspirin reacts with water leading to the formation of Acetic acid which is a Carboxylic acid derivative.

Aspirin on Hydrolysis forms Acetic acid and Salicylic acid.

The reaction shows up as a fizz when aspirin is added in water.

Aspirin is called Acetyl Salicylic acid and it helps to reduce:

  • Inflammation
  • Pain
  • Fever
  • Headache
  • Arthritis
  • Muscle pain
  • Tooth pain

Acetic acid or Ethanoic acid is a colorless liquid. It is an important carboxylic acid. It smells like vinegar.

Acetic acid is used for production of following:

  • Vinyl Acetate
  • Insecticides
  • Rubber
  • Acetic anhydride

Salicylic acid is a bitter compound which is colorless. It reduces acne and opens up the skin pores.
