Acetic acid can be prepared from ethane by oxidizing it. Acetic acid is generally a carboxylic acid. These acids can be made by the oxidation of alcohols using potassium dichromate(VI) solution with sulfuric acid. Ethane is made into acetic acid in two steps. First it is formed into an aldehyde and then to acetic acid.
Na₂CrO₄ + PbCl₂ → PbCrO₄ + 2 NaCl
<u>Explanation:</u>
In a double displacement reaction, the reactants which are involved in the reaction exchanging their ions thereby produces 2 new compounds. Here sodium chromate and lead chloride are undergoing double displacement reaction, the ions exchanges their position there by forming sodium chloride and lead chromate. So the double displacement reaction is given as,
Na₂CrO₄ + PbCl₂ → PbCrO₄ + 2 NaCl
Answer:
D) Low temperatures
Explanation:
Non-metals are elements that do not show metallic characteristics like heat conductivity, electrical conductivity, malleability, e.t.c. They are generally less dense and are bonded with weak forces in between their compounds.
The weakness of non-metals is the chief reason why they generally tend to have low boiling point. Only the presence of impurities can cause an elevation in their boiling points.
Metals on the other hand are good heat conductors and they generally have a high boiling point.
