Subscripts cannot be changed because they are the ratio of the amount. And as we know, in a chemical equation/reaction, mass cannot be created nor destroyed. Therefore, we cannot change subscripts, however, we could change coefficients. <span />
Answer:
C) 0.457
Explanation:
The ratio between O2 and H2O is 1:2 according to the balanced equation. You can find how many moles is O2 by : 5.12/22.4 = 0.22857 ( 1 mole = 22.4 litters)
Moles of H2O will be 0.22857 * 2 = 0.457142.
Therefore answer C)
amount of product formed or amount of reactants used / time
Because it is a mix of H2O (water) and NaCl (salt)
Answer:
No net change in reaction occurs in this nucleophilic acyl subtitution reaction
Explanation:
Sodium ethoxide in ethanol gives nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction with ethyl-2-methylpropanoate.
Here ethoxide group replaces an ethoxide group from ester through addition-ellimination pathway.
So, ultimately, the product of this reaction is identical with reactant i.e. ethyl-2-methylpropanoate is reproduced.
Hence one might observe no change during reaction as product and reactant of this reaction are same.
Mechanistic pathway has been shown below.
