Answer:
Step 1) hydrolysis using NaOH/H2O to form benzylalcohol
Step2) oxidation to Carboxylic acid using KMnO4 followed by decarboxylation to form benzene
3) friedel craft acylation using CH3COCl/AlCl3
Explanation:
The above 3 steps will yield acetophenone from methylbenzoate
Mineral because its not a rock
The first thing we need to do here is to recognize the unit of molarity and the units of the given percentage of nitric acid.
Molarity is mol HNO3 / L of solution. This is our aim
The given percentage is 0.68 g HNO3/ g solution
multiplying this with density to convert g solution into mL solution and dividing with the molecular weight of HNO3 (63 g/mol) to convert g HNO3 to mol. Therefore we obtain
0.016 mol/ mL or 16.23 mol/ L (M)
Answer: +178.3 kJ
Explanation:
The chemical equation follows:

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CaO(s))})+(1\times \Delta H^0f_{CO_2}]-[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CaCO_3(s))})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28CaO%28s%29%29%7D%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5E0f_%7BCO_2%7D%5D-%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28CaCO_3%28s%29%29%7D%29%5D)
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times (-635.1))+(1\times (-393.5))]-[(1\times (-1206.9))]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%28-635.1%29%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20%28-393.5%29%29%5D-%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%28-1206.9%29%29%5D)
The DH°rxn for the decomposition of calcium carbonate to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is +178.3 kJ
