Answer:
This is a conversion factor
Answer:
no
Explanation:
Fluoride is not nucleophilic (having the tendency to donate electrons) enough to allow for the use of HF to cleave ethers in protic media(protic solvents are polar liquid compounds that have dissociable hydrogen atoms). The rate of reaction is comparably low, so that heating of the reaction mixture is required.
Answer:
Carboxylic acid
Explanation:
Asprin is a drug that contains the carboxylic acid functional group (R-COOH), ester functional group (R-O-CO-R') and the aromatic group (benzene ring).
When we take in aspirin, it becomes salicylic acid. This metabolite irreversibly inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase. Hence the the production of protective prostaglandins is blocked causing inflammation and pain.
