Explanation:
The reaction between alcohol and acidified potassium dichromate is a redox reaction. This reaction can be used to detect a drunken driver.
Alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids depending on the structure of the alcohol. Primary alcohols yield adehydes and carboxylic acids while secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones.
The colour of the acidified potassium dichromate turns from orange to green when exposed to alcohols from the breath of a drunken driver.
They have the same number of electrons in their outer shells. Elements in the same group often share similar chemical properties because the outer electrons generally determine a lot of their properties
Answer:
A Chemical equation is balanced if the reactants side of the chemical reaction has the same number total of atoms of elements as the products side of the chemical equation. While a Chemical equation is unbalanced if the reactants side of the chemical reaction has a different number total of atoms of elements as the products side of the chemical equation
