Classify the following reaction: P4O10 + 6H2O 4H3PO4

Chemistry
1 answer:
skad [1K]3 years ago

Answer:- Synthesis.

Explanations:- Two species are reacting to make a newer one and so it is an example of a synthesis reaction.

If an equation is of the type, A+B\rightarrow AB then it is called synthesis reaction.

The given reaction in the question is, P_4O_1_0+6H_2O\rightarrow 4H_3PO_4

The above reaction looks exactly similar to the general equation we have written in the starting.  P_4O_1_0 and water are reacting to form phosphoric acid and so it is a synthesis reaction.

Write a net ionic equation to show that acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), hc9h7o4, behaves as a brønsted-lowry acid in water.
Thepotemich [5.8K]
By definition, Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor in the acid-base neutralization reaction. When a weak acid like acetylsalicylic acid is reacted with water, the water here acts as the Bronsted-Lowry base. This is possible because water has properties of amphoterism - can act as an acid or base. In this case, acetylsalicylic acid would have to donate its H+ atom to water, so that it would yield a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. The complete net ionic reaction is shown in the picture.

So, in the reaction, the products yield are the acetylsalicylate ion and the hydronium ion.

Write a mechanism for the esterification of propanoic acid with 18O-labeled ethanol. Show clearly the fate of the 18O label. (b)
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

See explanation and images attached

Explanation:

a) In the mechanism for the acid catalysed esterification of propanoic acid using ethanol, we can see that the first step is the protonation of the acid followed by nucleophillic attack of the alcohol. Loss of water and consequent deprotonation regenerates the acid catalyst. We can see the fate of the 18O labelled ethanol in the mechanism shown.

b)  In the second mechanism, an unnamed ester is hydrolysed using an acid catalyst. The attack of the acid and subsequent nucleophillic attack of water labelled with 18O leads to the incorporation of this 18O into the product acid as shown in the mechanism attached to this answer.

Keesha performed a chemical reaction and the products looked quite different from the reactants. She knew the amount of matter h
lakkis [162]

Answer:

the spotlight effect.

Explanation:

The spotlight effect is a tendency to think that people get noticed more often than they really do. It is an overestimation of the situation regarding the concern of getting observed. It concerns the self-confidence of an individual. For example, an individual feels that everybody in a party would notice him for a bad pair of shoes while in reality, it does not concern them.

As per the question, the overestimation of people's reaction is known as the spotlight effect.

givi [52]

Answer:

1. Fe is reduced

2. Mn is Oxidized

3. N is oxidized

Explanation:

<em>Check the image below:</em>

Reducing agent is an element or compound that loses an electron to an electron recipient in a redox chemical reaction. oxidizing agent is a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances — in other words to accept their electrons.
