Answer:
The hydrolysis in aqueous HCl of compound A can lead to the formation of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol.
Explanation:
The picture shows the structures of compound A, benzoncaine and the possible products of the proposed reaction.
The acidic hydrolysis is the inverse of the esterification reaction. Therefore, the ester group of compund A will react to form the equivalent carboxylic acid and alcohol.
In order to form benzocaine, the hydrolysis happens in with the nitrile group.
Answer:
Explanation:
In this case, we can start with the <u>formula of Platinum (II) Chloride</u>. The cation is the atom at the left of the name (in this case ) and the anion is the atom at the right of the name (in this case
). With this in mind, the <u>formula would be</u>
.
Now, if we used <u>metallic copper</u> we have to put in the reaction only the <u>copper atom symbol</u> . So, we have as reagents:
The question now is: <u>What would be the products?</u> To answer this, we have to remember <u>"single displacement reactions"</u>. With a general reaction:
With this in mind, the reaction would be:
I hope it helps!
