Acetic acid, ethanol, acetaldehyde and ethane form a series of 2-carbon molecules which differ in their extent of oxidation. Con

yanalaym [24]

Explanation:

Ethanol can be oxidized to ethanal or acetaldehyde which is further oxidized to acid that is acetic acid.

$CH_3CH_2OH$ → $CH_3CHO$ [oxidation by loss of hydrogen]

An oxidizing agent potassium dichromate(VI) solution is used to remove the hydrogen from the ethanol.

An oxidizing agent used along with dilute sulphuric acid for acidification.

Acetaldehyde can also be reduced back to ethanol again by adding hydrogen to it by using a reducing agent that is sodium tetrahydro borate, NaBH4.

The oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids can be done by the two-step process.

In the first step, one molecule of water is added in the presence of a catalyst that is acidic.

There is a generation of a hydrate. (geminal 1,1-diol).

$CH_3CHO$ → $CH_3CH_2COOH$ [reduction by the gain of electrons]

Here, the oxidizing agent used is $Cr_3O$ in the presence of acetone.

What are 2 ways to give an object potential energy?

natita [175]

There are several ways to give an object potential energy. One can move the object against the force of gravity to increase. One can also stretch an object out or put pressure on it.

A topographical map would be useful for which activity? A. planning a hiking trip B. studying plant growth over time C. studying

amm1812

The answer is A. planning a hiking trip

A topographical map would not help studying plant growth over time unless you are looking for a better altitude to plant said plants.

A topographical map would not help studying rainfall for one year unless your location was <em>really</em> so high or low that it affected your weather

And most of all, a topographical map would not be useful for planning a cuise across the Atlantic Ocean because the elevation of the sea is zero!

A topographical map <em>would</em> be useful for planning a hiking trip because there are many factors and details that a hike should have. Which includes height, distance, paths, and elevation.
