Benzaldehyde or C6H5CHO would not undergo the aldol condensation because it does not contain an alpha-hydrogen in its structure. Aldol condensation is a type of reaction that happens between an enolate and an aldehyde or ketone leading to a alkene that has a planar structure. The lack of an alpha-hydrogen would not allow for it to undergo such process since it cannot enolize. Benzaldehyde undergoes a nucleophilic reaction known as Claisen-Schmidt condensation. It has somehow same mechanism of the aldol reaction however, the nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl happens even without the alpha-hydrogen but with an enolate that is from a ketone.
The answer is True! Hope this helps correct me if I’m wrong
Moles of H⁺ released by each mole of acid = 3
Moles of H⁺ released = 3
Moles of OH⁻ released = 1.75
Moles of H⁺ remaining = 3 - 1.75 = 1.25 mol/dm³
pH = -log[H⁺]
pH = -log(1.25)
pH = -0.1
These would be your answers!
