1. Write the balanced chemical equations for the following reactions and identify the type of reaction.Ethanol is warmed with ethanoic acid to form ethyl acetate in the presence of concentrated \(H_2SO_4\).
In the presence of conc. (\(H_2SO_4\)), ethanol is warmed with ethanoic acid to form .
The following reaction occurs:
\(C_2H_5OH\) + \(CH_3COOH\) \(\xrightarrow[]{Con.H_2SO_4}\) \(CH_3COOC_2H_5\) + \(H_2O\)
The reaction described above is an /double displacement reaction.
Esterification is a reaction in which alcohol (\(C_2H_5OH\)) and carboxylic acid (\(CH_3COOH\)) combine to form a sweet-smelling substance called ester (\(CH_3COOC_2H_5\)).
2. Write the balanced chemical equations for the following reactions and identify the type of reaction.Chlorine gas is passed in an aqueous potassium iodide solution to form potassium chloride solution and solid iodine.
\(2KI\)(aq) + \(Cl_2\)(g) → + \(I_2\)(s)
This is an example of reaction.
When chlorine (\(Cl_2\)) gas is passed in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide (\(KI\)), solid iodine (\(I_2\)) and potassium chloride are produced (\(KCl\)). It is a displacement reaction in which the more reactive chlorine displaces, the less reactive iodine in potassium iodide.
