Explanation:
Ethanol can be oxidized to ethanal or acetaldehyde which is further oxidized to acid that is acetic acid.
→ [oxidation by loss of hydrogen]
-
An oxidizing agent potassium dichromate(VI) solution is used to remove the hydrogen from the ethanol.
- An oxidizing agent used along with dilute sulphuric acid for acidification.
Acetaldehyde can also be reduced back to ethanol again by adding hydrogen to it by using a reducing agent that is sodium tetrahydro borate, NaBH4.
- The oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids can be done by the two-step process.
- In the first step, one molecule of water is added in the presence of a catalyst that is acidic.
- There is a generation of a hydrate. (geminal 1,1-diol).

[reduction by the gain of electrons]
Here, the oxidizing agent used is
in the presence of acetone.
Answer:
After 2 half-lives there will be 25% of the original isotope, and 75% of the decay product. After 3 half-lives there will be 12.5% of the original isotope, and 87.5% of the decay product. After 4 half-lives there will be 6.25% of the original isotope, and 93.75% of the decay product.

Answer:
19 °C
Explanation:
Step 1: Given and required data
- Mass of granite (m): 20 g
- Heat absorbed (Q): 300. 2 J
- Specific heat capacity of granite (c): 0.790 J/g.°C
Step 2: Calculate the temperature change (ΔT)
We will use the following expression.
Q = c × m × ΔT
ΔT = Q/c × m
ΔT = 300.2 J/(0.790 J/g.°C) × 20 g = 19 °C
To Find :
The volume of 12.1 moles hydrogen at STP.
Solution :
We know at STP, 1 mole of gas any gas occupy a volume of 22.4 L.
Let, volume of 12.1 moles of hydrogen is x.
So, x = 22.4 × 12.1 L
x = 271.04 L
Therefore, the volume of hydrogen gas at STP is 271.04 L.
Explanation:
Yes, a chemical reaction can happen with only one substance.
A typical example of such reaction is the radioactive decay.
Radioactive decay is the loss of elementary particles from an unstable nucleus, ultimately changing the unstable element into another more stable element. .
When radioactive elements are let alone, they decompose to form stable harmless elements.
An example of radioactive decay is attached in the image below;
