The product(s) of a heated reaction of N,N-ethylmethylpentanamide with sodium hydroxide would be __________. View Available Hint
1 answer:
Answer:
sodium pentanoate and ethylmethylamine
Explanation:
The reaction of N,N-ethylmethylpentanamide with sodium hydroxide involves an amide and an inorganic hydroxide.
The CO-N bond is highly polar hence the -N(C2H5) (CH3) moiety is easily lost and replaced by the -ONa leading to the formation of sodium pentanoate.
The H^+ combines with -N(C2H5) (CH3) to yield ethylmethylamine

Answer: c. +4
Explanation:
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here manganese is having an oxidation state of +4 called as cation and oxygen forms an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged to give which written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
