Under acidic conditions, the solution is red, and under alkaline conditions, the solution is blue. Chemical reactions other than acid-base can also cause a color change to litmus paper. For instance, chlorine gas turns blue litmus paper white – the litmus dye is bleached, because of presence of hypochlorite ions.
An organic reaction between a substituted alkene and a conjugated diene to form a substituted cyclohexene derivative is said to be Diels-Alder reaction (specifically, [4+2 cycloaddition). The formation of new
-bonds is the driving force of this reaction, which is energetically more stable than the
-bonds.
The reaction that takes place due to the heating of dimethyl maleate in presence of 3-sulfolene is as shown in the image.
On heating 3-sulfolene the compound breaks down to give sulfur dioxide gas and butadiene. This diene then reacts with dimethyl maleate which acts as a dienophiles and then these two diene and dienophiles will undergo a Diels-Alder reaction to form a new 6-membered cyclohexene ring.
Thus, the product formed due to the heating of dimethyl maleate in presence of 3-sulfolene is dimethyl cyclohex-4-ene-1,2-dicarboxylate.
To extract hydrogen from water, researchers insert two electrodes across the water and pass current, which can separate the hydrogen from water. The process called electrolysis of water. ... An electric field applied through the cobalt oxide to water molecules resulted in the electrolysis of water
