Answer:

The hydrogen can be gotten from the added Acid or water during "workup".

Explanation:

Basically we can say that the reaction describe in this question is a Reduction reaction because of the chemical compound called sodium borohydride. In the reaction described above we can see that there is a Reduction of ketone to alcohol by the compound; sodium borohydride.

For the reduction Reaction to occur the C-O bond must break so as to enable the formation of O-H bond and C-H bond.

So, "the reaction mixture is treated with water and H2SO4 to produce the desired alcohol", thus, the oxygen will definitely pick up the hydrogen from H2SO4 or H2O.

Balance the equation <br><br> __C7H6O2 + __O2 —&gt; __CO2 + __H2O
ser-zykov [4K]

2 C₇H₆O₂ + 15 O₂ → 14 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

<u>Explanation:</u>

C₇H₆O₂ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

First we have to balance the O- atoms, we have to put 6 in front of water so there are 12 H atoms on RHS, to balance it we need to put 2 in front of  C₇H₆O₂, and so we have 14 C - atoms on LHS, 28 + 6 = 34 O - atoms on RHS, so we have to put 15 in front of Oxygen in LHS, so that each and every atom in the equation gets balanced now. The balanced equation is,  2 C₇H₆O₂ + 15 O₂ → 14 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Leokris [45]
100.0ml*0.400m =xml *2.00m
x=100.0*0.400/2.00= 20 ml 2.0 m CaCl2

you need to take 20 ml 2.0 m CaCl2 and dilute it with water up to 100.0 ml
