In the Fischer esterification reaction, a carboxylic acid reacts with an excess of alcohol in acidic conditions to form an ester

. During the reaction the sp2sp2 hybridized carbonyl carbon of the acid forms an sp3sp3 hybridized intermediate before returning to sp2sp2 hybridization in the product. Draw the structure of the neutral sp3sp3 hybridized intermediate and the ester product in the reaction between pentanoic acid and n‑propanol.

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Esterification is a reaction of an alkanol and an alkanoic acid to yield an ester and water as products. It is analogous to inorganic neutralization reaction.

The process may be acid catalyzed. As mentioned in the question, the process of ester formation between pentanoic acid and n‑propanol first involves the carbonyl in going through an sp3 hybridized intermediate before returning to sp2 hybridized state in the product.

The image of the neutral form of this intermediate as well as the final structure of the ester are both shown in the image attached to this answer.

Guillaume Amontons first took a stab at measuring absolute zero in 1702. What would be the most reasonable way it would have bee
Tema [17]

The most reasonable way to measure absolute zero would have been to extrapolate the ideal gas law.

<h3>What is Absolute zero?</h3>

This is referred to the temperature at which a thermodynamic system has the lowest form of energy.

Guillaume Amontons used gas equation to prove that absence of heat was theoretically possible which would have involved only extrapolating the ideal gas law.

How do I find the slope of this graph?​ Is it even possible?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Not exactly But you can take the slope of the curved portion and the slope of the flatline.

It wont do you much good since your working for absorbance but if you ever see something like a temperature change you can use the slope(s) to find freezing points/melting

Explanation:

If you need to submit a slope you could use a best fit which is just point to point or you could break it up like i mentioned
