Adhesion of water to the surface of a material will cause an upward force on the liquid. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the surface material is stronger than the cohesive forces between the water molecules.
The mesosphere is the coldest of the atmospheric layers. In fact it is colder than the Polar regions of the Earth cold enough to freeze water vapor into ice clouds. As you increase in altitude, temperature decreases The thermosphere is the layer to which this pattern does not apply.
Answer:
A Fridiel craft catalyst will convert benzene to acetophenone.
Permanganate catalyst can be used to convert toluene to acetophenone.
Explanation:
Benzene can be reduced to acetophenone by the addition of anhydrous aluminium chloride, AlCl₃
The mechanism is as follows:
Benzene + Acetyl choloride → acetophenone
To convert toluene to acetophenone, the following steps are necessary:
- Oxidation of Toluene to Benzoic acid.
This is done by refluxing toluene with alkaline potassium permanganate (KMnO₄+ Na₂CO₃).
-
Benzoic acid is converted to Benzoyl chloride by treating with thioyl chloride and heating at about 80 ⁰C.
-
Benzoyl chloride is treated with methyl lithium to form Acetophenone.
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>Burning gas on a stove top transforms chemical energy into thermal energy.</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Cooking food involves in two types of energies. <em>They are chemical energy and thermal energy.
</em>
We use gas for a gas stove.Here gas is chemical energy.when we light the stove the fire lits up and here the <em>chemical energy energy is converted into thermal energy.</em>
Breaking and combining of bonds during combustion gives heat and light.This thermal energy heats the vessels and cooks the food through the <em>process of conduction, convection and radiation.
