<h2>Acetic Acid + Sodium ethoxide ⇄ Butyric Acid + Sodium Hydroxide</h2>
Explanation:
An ionic equation for the reaction of acetic acid with sodium ethoxide is as follows -
- Reactants -
Acetic Acid and Sodium ethanolate (sodium ethoxide)
- Products -
Butyric Acid and Sodium hydroxide
Hence,
Acetic Acid + Sodium ethoxide ⇄ Butyric Acid + Sodium Hydroxide
⇄
- Weak acids and bases have low energy than strong acids and bases.
- The chemical equilibria shift the reaction side with the species having lower energy.
- Given reaction is an acid-base reaction in which the equilibrium favors the starting material that means it will go to the side of the weakest acid that is acetic acid is weaker than butyric acid.
Explanation:
Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. To attain noble gas configuration it is necessary for the magnesium atom to lose two valence electrons and therefore, it forms ions.
On the other hand, atomic number of oxygen atom is 8 and its electronic distribution is 2, 6. To attain noble gas configuration it needs to gain two electrons. And, on gaining the electrons it forms ions.
Hence, when both magnesium and oxygen ions chemically combine with each other then it forms the compound magnesium oxide ().
This is because magnesium transfer its two valence electrons to the oxygen atom and due to the formation of opposite charges on these atoms they get attracted towards each other.

Explanation:
Methane is an alkane. The commonest chemical reaction that alkanes undergo is substitution. During a substitution reaction, one or more atoms of hydrogen is/are replaced in the alkane.
In methane, in the presence of sunlight and molecular chlorine gas, a homolytic fission of Cl2 occurs to yield chlorine radicals in an initiation step.
The propagation steps involve reaction of the methane with chlorine radicals. Certain intermediates continue to be formed along the way until the tetrachlorination product is finally obtained.
