Answer:
See explanation and Image attached
Explanation:
The preparation of triphenylmethanol occurs as shown in the image attached to this answer.
The first step is the nucleophillic reaction of the phenyl magnesium bromide with the carbonyl group.
Reaction of the second molecule of phenyl magnesium bromide with the product yields triphenyl methoxide ion. Reaction with acid yields the triphenylmethanol product which is extracted into the organic phase.
The triphenylmethanol product can be purified by recrystallization.
Explanation:
The pH of a substance can be found by using the formula
where [ H+ ] is the hydrogen ion concentration in the substance
From the question
[ H+ ] = 2.1 × 10-¹² M
To find the pH substitute the value into the above formula
We have
We have the answer as
<h2>pH = 11.7 </h2>The solution is basic since it lies in the basic region that is from 8 to 14
